Guy Enugu always lack water in dry seasons.

Most well dry up during this period. With majority not having borehole, their fate always lye in hands of water retailers( tankers)

I swear Enugu people are suffering.
I left Kaduna to Enugu for Christmas celebration last year but I didn't plan to stay this long then before you know it UNN announced they were doing post utme and my parents had to go back and I stayed in Enugu.
What I've seen here eh, I had no idea ppl still buy water from tankers until I came here cos that business went out of existence a long time ago in Kaduna. And also here in Enugu people buy gallons of water from a person that has borehole for 10 naria while back in Kd people that has bore hole give water for free.
Here a bag of water is 150 naria while in Kd its 80-100 because there's a lot of pure water factories there.
Enugu is just not blessed with water

Let the people come together, contribute, dig a borehole and manage it themselves. Relying on this government is a waste of time. Whatever you can do to ease your own suffering, JUST DO IT!

In my area here, we all contributed to buy all 3 pieces of 500KVA transformer, poles, cables and all accessories. We still pay exhorbitantly for the electricity. Each house either has a borehole or well. Private water storage tanks everywhere.

If we were to rely on government, won't we have died of thirst/draught? Or would we have had any electricity? So you guys too should gear up, contribute, do it for yourselves. Let the LG Chairmen and other government arms responsible for these things answer to GOD for their irresponsibility.
bro it's not easy drilling in some parts of Enugu, I work with some drilling guys (plumber), Una go ascend finish nothing or small ground water. some places too are very hard.

Is the entire Lagos state having tap water after 22 years of Tinubu’s stranglehold on the sophisticated and educated Lagosians who brag about their huge IGR and third economy in Africa despite being a trash can, like most of our country

Not that people cannot afford drilling boreholes but the challenge is that Enugu has a thick layer of COAL DEPOSIT beneath the earth surface. You will have to drill across the COAL DEPOSIT before you can get sustainable portable water. That is a very difficult mission.

Even to dig a well you can only go some feet's deep and you can't dig further because of the deposit. At that level you can't get a sustainable quantity of water.

The public water supply that would have brought remedy is in a terrible condition and the government doesn't care about it.

Exactly,I dug a borehole though but the cost took me close to 2m for it to be actualized.

This Enugu state government is the worse,during the last administration,running taps were installed in almost everywhere in the City to the extent that it reached abakpa.

so because Texas experience such recently....it should happen here too......i believe you know that they well structured water supply in Texas and other states in the united states...... So it hardly happens.......

Nigeria got zero water supply structure.....how many people get access to portable water in nigeria? Comparing what happened in Texas to nigeria useless water supply...is like comparing sleep with death......

Even down here in lagos....water supply is epileptic.....not all areas in lagos get their water from lagos water cooperation......no be borehole people dey dig?

No mind am. Even people wey dey live for Lekki dey experience water scarcity. Come to Lagos and see how people queue up to fetch water. That's why nigerians need to get serious with their leaders. You have LG chairmen but everybody ignore them and allow them do anything they like. You have senators and rep members both state and federal, nobody is asking them questions or putting pressure on them. You LG chairmen will be in their mansions enjoying and when we see them we hail them instead of beating them to coma.

My village compound in Abia state has a small deposit of coal beneath and we hear am before we could bypass the 15 feet later of coal. We were charged 450k to drill the borehole. They said drilling in Enugu using the normal manual drill is virtually impossible! You need industrial drilling equipment and that costs millions. It’s a tough one in Enugu.
