Water Crisis Deepens in Nasarawa Eggon as Residents Resort to Unsafe Sources

Residents of Nasarawa Eggon Local Government Area in Nasarawa State are grappling with severe water scarcity, resorting to stagnant ponds and muddy pools for their daily needs due to the collapse of public water infrastructure.

Communities now rely on contaminated water for drinking, cooking, and bathing, raising serious health concerns. Locals described the water as foul-smelling and visibly dirty, but said they have no alternatives.

“We’ve not had tap water in over two months,” said Adefu Ruth, a resident of Angwan Kuje. “We’re forced to use this dirty water.”

Despite the presence of elected officials and the Commissioner for Water Resources—an indigene of the area—residents say there has been no visible intervention. Some criticized local leaders for neglecting the community after election campaigns.

Efforts to get a response from the commissioner were unsuccessful. A ministry staffer, speaking anonymously, confirmed the situation and said repairs on faulty boreholes are underway, though no timeline was provided.

In the meantime, a donated water tanker has offered temporary relief to struggling residents.
