ABSTRACT

,Pollovving,sant outbreaks of water borne diseases in Lugbe Federal Capiral TJJuja Nigeria,this study tends to assess rhe quality of water consun-zed~ resident in Lugbe. The study was in a bid rc» ascertain the safety andy of water consumed in Lugbe. Ten boreholes and ten hand­ dug vvells ndomly from both Federal housing and Lugbe across areas l~ere san-z1th dry (February) and wet (Juiytseasorzs . The pnysical and chen-zical ic indices investigated include- the ren-zperature, pH, (~onducrivv,Dissolved oxygen. Turbidity, Total dissolved solids, .J.~luoride, ilphate.sulphites, iron, chloride, calcium, n-zagnesium, COD, BOIJ, Tor4ss, Aluminiumfree chlorine, cadmium, Lead and Arsenic. ~rhe resulr: were comparedwith the guideline levels recon-zmended by the ~I£O iral ministry of Environment.Result obrained snowed that r.naJority 0le in the area suffer water scarcity and insecurity. Most of the paran-zes were within the WHOIFME standard level, vvhile others such as oride, total hardness,magnesium and Calciunz showed ren-zarla::zbl4)n.The microbiological result indicated rhar both water sources p.; the wells are contaminated with parhogenic micro­ organisn-zs_lies that water particularly the well sourceunless well treared is for human consumption. The t- test srarisrical analysis shovved p-= 0.38 for the chemical parametric analysis~ p=0.34for m i c.r-cs lo i a.I ~on,P- value = 0.7,9 ,comparing the two areas and p=0.42 comparing ole and well water, All values obtained is greater than level of signific~, thus, the null hypothesis is accepted, and the conclusion reached is is no significant different between parameters compared. Thesrudy rrecommends that environmental stakeholders rrz-ay wish to use poli( continuous monitoring to curb environmental pollUTion, irate refuse dumping and siting boreholes and wells far ayvay fron-zvay, and dumpsites.Researchers are also encouraged to e,n-zbark on assessment of drinking water in dtfferenZparts of the counrr:,y TO' that safe wholesome water is provided for rhe people.

1. Sa d of the Study

\N at:e r is amponent of life without which there may be n a life (Hazony, 2015 ).It: i sal compound which consists of Hydrogen and Oxygen in the ratio of 2 :is one of the essential requirements for all forms of life and it: is eonsiintegral part of the living organisms life; and God has gifted au r un ivebulk of this valuable substance in different forms such as: rive r , I a kE springs, rain, snow, glaciers, aquife rs and others(Jamal, 2017). Livisms cannot survive longer than few days without adequate vv a t:e r , as! need to ensure that individuals get access to clean water cannot beAlepu, 2016 ).The oceans and seas occupy over 70% of the e art: h" s s U3ning that about 29% of the earth's su rf ace is occupied by the land .. O. S. 2008). Water is a natural resource that is both in val u a b I EXistence of all living organisms, but th is va I u e d resource is inc re a sin ghreatened as human population grows and demand more vvater of Ity for domestic purposes and economic activities (Yakubu, 2013). \lVa-! most important nutrient essential to the survival of all h U IT! ani ty it is involved in every bodily function, and makes up about 75-80% otfy weight of every organism(Offei-Ansah,2012; Haruna and S a 10m on .. ~an needs water for drinking and in his d a i Iy domestic a ct:i viti e .s , ornestlc cooking, bathing and cleaning; agri cu Itu ral activities like irrigaJstrial processes and transportation activities ..• therefore, extensive d local efforts to provide clean and reliable water for the in ere as i ngm of the world is vital (Singh and Math u r, 2005).There are tvvo main of water- the surface (lake, stream, river, pond), and the gro u n d vv!lls and boreholes) (Oko et.al,2014).Wate r is polluted by e i 1: her C) r lral and anthropogenic factors. Surface vvate rs a re generally I" a re vu I r pollution because of easy prone to conta min ations from va ri C) use ntal sources ranging from effluent disch a rge fro m domestic and in d us tiles. Direct discharge of untreated abatto i r vva stes into open d ra i n ages .. h flows into nearby water body constitute a maj or source of poll u t: ion trface and underground water

(JV1agaji a 2012). Pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizer contaminations fro mag rdon also result to the presence of path age n i c bacteria in both su r f aderground water. Other water contarn inants could be as a resu It of iinate dumping of wastes, poor well construction, poor eonstrueti latrines and septic systems and siting of graves near bo re ho I esmake underground water unfit for h u ma n consumption I e a din g ted water quality. Thus, contaminations ca n m a ke borehole and vve II 'suitable for domestic use as a resource (H 0 1m es,2007).The qua I ity ole and well waters is determined by testing various pa ra mete irest on which result is compared with the standard qua I ities lor water intended for human consumption a nd use {Appelo and Postrr

:L.1 VVa1:ty Assessment

\Nater qucsment provides the baseline information on water safety, s i nee vvatEin any source of water at the point of use can change with tim e t h us" JS monitoring is essential. Water quality is a fu n damental in assessi ng water is good or bad depending on usage: for drinking, clgrieu Itu rEic uses or for industrial Purposes (NS\N, 2017). Assessing vvater qucves comparing measured chemical concentrations with nat:u ra I bancentrations and with guidelines established to protect hum a n he .ological communities. Thus, water qu a I ity is described by th e can ee r different chemicals of interest (Alberta, 2010).

Str Agencies (SWAs) are responsible for the sup ply of wate r j n u r b amd in charge of establishing and mainta in in g rural water infra s 't. r u ct u rEiigerian rural communities depend on bore holes and hand dug vve lir water supply, and there is no guara nte e a bout the hygie n e of t: h ources. Thus, many people in these re m ate a reas suffer seve ra 1 \/Vat:e rliseases ranging from diarrhoea, chole ra, typhoid and guinea \/va rm ins,

Avail a b i I ity a nbility to water resources reduces the effo rts a nd time input in V\/ ate nn and brings about increase in the qu ant ity of daily per cap it a \IV ate r cions there by increasing production act i v it i e s such as industria I and ral production. Aceo rd in g to TIf Minh (2011), water insecurity and s ca rc ity can stifle a natio n s' e co n -gs about conflicts and unrest among use rs, even as the enviro n rJl e nt: ielv impacted.

There is a s e rir scarcity in Lugbe where the inhabita nts d a neither have access t e pipe borne water nor safe surface vvater justasitis com tI'I 0 n in rY areas in Nigeria. Thus, people tend to resC) rt to ungr ci un d vv a~ir main source of water for drinking and oth e r domestic uses.

Stan d a rd san qes in water quality is a prerequisite in safegu arding wate r resou r crose from the need to protect human hea Ith from the impacts of vvct:ion (Minh et al, 2011; UNICEF, 2010). Natu ra I water since J_ 8 th ce nbeen discovered to contain many disso Ived substances and co nta m i ruding bacteria, viruses, heavy metals nitrates, salts, arse nics ~ cya rwaste components (Likambo, 2014).
