Urban Utility Mapping in Nigeria

The document is a comprehensive report on Urban Utility Mapping in Nigeria for the year 2021, detailing the state of urban water utilities across the country. It provides a critical analysis of the functionality, capacity, and challenges faced by the waterworks systems in different states and regions.

Key Findings: The report reveals that out of 36 states, only 16 have fully functional urban water utilities. A significant number of waterworks are either partially functional or not functional at all, leading to a mere 25% capacity utilization of the combined installed capacity of all waterworks.

Challenges: The document identifies several challenges affecting the functionality and efficiency of urban water utilities, including inadequate infrastructure, low staff productivity, poor power supply, and insufficient funding.

Progress and Targets: It outlines the progress made in terms of functionality milestones from 2021 to 2024 and sets service coverage targets for 2021-2025. The report also highlights the budget allocations for the water sector over the last three years.

Consumer Satisfaction: Consumer satisfaction levels are assessed, with findings indicating dissatisfaction with the duration and quantity of water flow, as well as the administrative processes involved in obtaining services from urban water utilities.

The report emphasizes the need for comprehensive reviews and strategic planning to improve the urban water utility sector in Nigeria.
