Analyzing Water Management Issues Using GIS : The Case of Nigeria

Title: Analyzing Water Management Issues Using GIS : The Case of Nigeria

In the past several years, Nigeria continues to experience robust economic development with growth rates surpassing those of her neighbors. Added to all these are pressures from rising population spread across different eco-regions and a growing demand for water use to meet the needs of different segments of the economy. With that have come water stress, limiting access, and degradation compounded by incoherent policy in water management in the country despite vast hydrological endowments. Despite current initiatives, Nigeria’s water environment remains under stress with projected deficits.

Accordingly, the study analyses water management issues in Nigeria using mix-scale method of GIS and descriptive statistics. Emphasizing the issues, environmental analysis, factors fuelling the problems and ongoing initiatives, results show declines in water quality, widespread degradation, limited access and growing demand. With the issues linked to various elements, GIS assessment reveals a steady dispersion of socio-economic factors as well as diffusion of stressors in some areas. This research recommends the need for improved policy, regular monitoring, and the design of data infrastructure, sustainable use and regional cooperation.
