ASSESSMENT OF WATER SUPPLIED TO HALL OF RESIDENCE OF THE FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC EDE
Abstract
Access to safe drinking water is essential for human health. However, waterborne pathogens can contaminate water sources, posing significant health risks. This study aimed to conduct a microbiological analysis of water samples from hall of residence in Federal Polytechnic Ede to access their safety for consumption. A total of seven water samples were collected from hall of residence in Federal Polytechnic Ede and analyzed for the presence of micro-biological contaminants, including total coliforms, Eschericia coli, and other pathogenic microorganisms. The highlight the need for regular monitoring and treatment of water sources to ensure the safety of drinking water. The findings if this study can inform public health policy and interventions aimed at improving access to safe drinking water
