 ASUWAHC Repairs Faulty Water Points, Tackles Leakages in Onitsha

‎By Obinwa Chikaodili

‎The Anambra State Urban Water Assets Holding Corporation (ASUWAHC), Onitsha Zone, has embarked on a major maintenance exercise to restore faulty public water fetching points and address leakages and structural defects across the zone. 

‎The exercise, which was conducted on Sept. 2, was led by the Onitsha Zonal Head, Engr. Francis Udoh, alongside the zone’s technical team, under the supervision of the Officer-in-Charge of ASUWAHC, Mrs. Emmanuella Okafor. 

‎The maintenance team visited several public water fetching points and their surrounding areas, carrying out on-the-spot assessments to identify faults affecting the functionality of the facilities.

‎During the exercise, the team identified and repaired several defects, including leaking water points and structural faults. The intervention was aimed at restoring the affected facilities, reducing water wastage and ensuring continued access to functional public water points for residents. According to the corporation, the exercise forms part of its ongoing efforts to protect and sustain existing water infrastructure through regular inspection, preventive maintenance and prompt repairs.

‎The initiative is also in line with the Anambra State Government’s broader water sector reforms under the leadership of Governor Chukwuma Soludo, which focus on rehabilitating critical water infrastructure, improving service delivery and ensuring that public water facilities remain functional and accessible.

‎Speaking during the exercise, Engr. Udoh appealed to Community Watch Monitors and residents to protect the water facilities against vandalism, misuse and deliberate damage. He urged members of the public to promptly report leaking pipes, damaged fittings, vandalised facilities and other faults to the ASUWAHC Onitsha Zonal Office to enable the Corporation to intervene before such defects worsen.

‎Udoh explained that early reporting of faults would facilitate quicker repairs, reduce water losses and help keep the facilities operational for the benefit of the communities. He stressed that while regular maintenance was essential to extending the lifespan of the facilities, responsible use and community vigilance were equally important.

‎The Zonal Head therefore encouraged residents to treat the public water fetching points as community assets and work with the corporation to protect them. The maintenance exercise underscores ASUWAHC’s preventive approach to water infrastructure management, with emphasis on early detection of faults, timely repairs and stronger community participation in sustaining public water facilities.
