Abstract

Comparative examination of different sources of water supply and water borne disease in Kusenla Village, Eleyele, Ibadan, Oyo state was carried out with a view to determine their levels of contamination of bacteria. The sources of water examined are tap water, well water and stream water. The questionnaire was used for the survey. Bacteria isolated from the water samples include coliforms. Stream water and well water were found to contain bacterial isolates unlike the tap water that has none.
