Residents of Enugu metropolis in Enugu State, on Monday, lamented the acute water shortage that hit the city.
The problem of water scarcity in the state capital, which has thrown many residents into hardship, is as old as the city itself. It has defied all solutions by different administrations.
The situation, it was learnt, grew worse following the breakdown of the Oji Water Scheme, which supplies water to the metropolis, coupled with vandalism of water pipes, which makes it difficult to reticulate the commodity.
Residents of New Layout, Obiagu, Ogui, New Market, GRA, New Haven and Independence Layout are most hit by the acute water shortage as some do not even have board, while those who have do not get water regularly.
