By

December 13, 2014
The Federal Government has flagged off the National Water Supply and Sanitation Data Survey that will enhance performance tracking system for Water Supply and Sanitation sub-sector.
 
At the flag off ceremony organized by the Federal Ministry of Water Resources
on Wednesday, 10th December 2014 in Abuja, the Minister of Water Resources, Mrs. Sarah Reng Ochekpe, represented by the Permanent Secretary Mr. Istifanus Musa, said that the objective of the survey was to have updated information system on all public water supply and sanitation facilities and to ascertain the percentage of population that have access to improved sources of water supply and sanitation.
 
She said “the Survey is yet another milestone that we intend to use to enhance the delivery of qualitative water services to Nigerians”.
 
She added that the exercise would enable the Ministry to take stock of achievements under the MDGs targets for water and sanitation as well as providing opportunity for laying a solid foundation for the sustainable Development Goals.
 “All the efforts made so far in establishing water supply and sanitation data which have resulted in different figures need to be harmonized by all stakeholders to enable us have a common platform for reporting the progress of the Sector” she said.
 
Ochekpe said that in 2006/ 2007 the Ministry carried out first ever national baseline survey for water supply and sanitation in the 36 states and FCT, the survey being flagged-off now is to build on the pool of data that was established from the baseline survey.
She called on all States’ Executive Governors and Chairmen of the Local Government Councils to provide the necessary supports that would make the Survey a success in their areas.
 
The Minister commended all the key stakeholders particularly the National Bureau of Statistics, World Bank, AFDB, AFD, UNICEF, EU and WaterAid for their efforts in developing the data base.
In his remarks, the World Bank representative, Engr. Hassan Kida stated that World Bank had been in support of developing the Data Survey for the Sector since 2007.
 He said that the database would be used to identify locations and operational status of 
 
Water Supply and Sanitation facilities and also determine national access to improved water supply and basic sanitation.
 
He called on all stakeholders to develop a robust data base that would be acceptable.
“Try and develop a database that will give the people of this country information that is accurate and government can rely on it in developing policies in the Water Sector”, he said
