| description | Water is an everlasting free resource that is vital for life (Rahman, et al., 2014). Access to
water supply is essential to good life and health. It is crucial and pivotal to many other goals
highlighted in the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Sustainable
access to water for potable and non-potable uses continues to pose enormous challenges. The
challenge of achieving water security in Africa is contingent upon the hydrological variability
and its extremes (UN-Water, 2010). However, the availability of freshwater resources has
become a major challenge facing humanity worldwide especially in developing countries. This
situation has further been aggravated by a high rate of urbanization, population growth, rising
water demand, continuous depletion of fresh surface water and groundwater, climate change,
water governance, extreme social inequality and pollution (Struk-Sokolowska, et al., 2020,
Balogun et al., 2016). These situations require that water resources be satisfactorily managed
in terms of quantity and quality to meet the current demands and attain future sustainability. |
