The Lagos Water Corporation has reassured residents that the state public water is safe for consumption because it conforms with the World Health Organisation’s standards, despite the Cholera outbreak.
This was revealed on Saturday by the Corporation’s Managing Director, Mukhtaar Tijani, through the Director of Operations, Helen Taiwo, at the Baruwa Community Engagement Forum.
During the event held at the palace of the Baale of Baruwa community, High Chief Khalid Baruwa, the LWC boss said, “The forum was aimed at enjoining the Baruwa Community and its environs to connect to safe water that conforms with World Health Organisation standards.
“This is in line with the state government’s policy to ensure access to safe drinking water against untreated borehole water that is not safe for human consumption and exposes you and your family to health hazards.”
