STRATEGIC WORKPLAN
  MINISTRY OF WATER RESOURCES


            OYO STATE



          PREPARED BY:-


      MR. SUNMBO OWOLABI
  Commissioner for Water Resources
OPENING
 I consider it ridiculous in the 21st Century to see helpless citizens
  especially women and children carrying buckets of water on their
  heads or searching for water. This is an unlikely phenomenon in
  Western Europe and North America.

 There is abundant surface water all the year round in Oyo State
  but the problem is how to harness it for the use of the populace.
  As said in the RHYME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER, “Water,
  Water everywhere but not enough to drink”

 It will therefore be most appropriate within a four year term frame
  to work assiduously towards providing potable water for all.
OBJECTIVE



Provision of potable water
 throughout Oyo state all
 year round within the next
 4 years.
MAJOR CHALLENGES
DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
 The major problem at the moment
  appears to be the distribution network.
  If water is produced in huge quantity but
  without adequate distribution network,
  the effort will be in vain.
 The Osegere Water Plant near Asejire
  has long been completed but there is no
  distribution network to supply places like
  Erunmu, Lalupon, Ejioku, Lagun,
  Monatan, Olode and environs.
MAJOR CHALLENGES
POWER SUPPLY:
 Provision of potable water cannot be efficient
  and effective without adequate and constant
  power supply i.e. 24 hours a day, seven days
  a week and fifty-two weeks in a year.
 Erratic power supply affects production and
  supply of water by Water Corporation. A
  minimum of 18 hours uninterrupted power
  supply in our Waterworks and Booster
  Stations across the State is imperative.
SHORT TERM GOALS
 Change the old galvanized and
  asbestos pipes to modern UPVC
  pipes that can last for between 50
  and 75 years around the state.
 Overhaul and maintain existing
  power generating sets in all the
  water works state wide.
 Activate the distribution network at
  Osegere Water Plant near Asejire.
MEDIUM TERM GOALS
REACTIVATION OF DAMS

 In Oyo North and some parts of Ibadan suburbs there
  are some dams already completed by OYSADEP but
  they have either gone into dis-use or broken down.
  Some have no water treatment plants. They are at
  Ago-Are, Ilero, Okeho, Iganna, Irawo, Ogboro, Oje-
  Owode, Ilua, Sepeteri, Ofiki, Ikere. Sanusi in Oluyole
  Local Government, Alabata and Pade both in Akinyele
  Local Government.
 It will be necessary for Government to install and
  complete water treatment plants on these dams in
  order not to let the initial investments waste.
MEDIUM TERM GOALS – cont’d
IMPROVED DISTRIBUTION
 Awe, Akinmorin and Ogbomoso road have no water
  supply. The major problem here is distribution. Pipes will
  be laid appropriately to solve this problem.

MINI WATER WORKS
 In Ogbomoso zone, Iresadu, Ajawa and some satellite
  towns are not served with water at all. Mini water works
  will be constructed at such locations.

 Mini treatment plants will be created on Omi river and some
  identified locations such as Sanusi in Oluyole Local
  Government, Alabata and Pade both in Akinyele Local
  Government where OYSADEP dams exist.
MEDIUM TERM GOALS – cont’d
PROVISION OF
 BOREHOLES
In communities where it is
 not too economical to have
 mini treatment plants but with
 up to 500 people bore holes
 would be constructed.
MEDIUM TERM GOALS – cont’d
 PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP
 Government should shift grounds on solely participating in water
    production and distribution. Private participation can be brought into
    areas of water production and distribution in Ibadan and other urban
    areas as we progress.


    Government can hold on to Dam maintenance and Quality Control.
    This arrangement apart from engendering efficiency will bring in more
    revenue as Government will be generating revenue from those who
    operate the schemes without recurrent expenses on chemicals, diesel
    and electricity.


 The case of NITEL and G.S.M. operators is more relevant here. If this
    move is supported, Government will only need to expand and reinforce
    the distribution network and then stay back to collect revenue from the
    Operators.
 Public/Private participation in water supply is being operated in Abidjan,
    Accra and Lagos. This action if actively pursued will change the face of
    provision of potable water in the State within twenty-four months.
LONG TERM GOALS
IRRIGATION
 The Ikere Gorge Dam is the biggest source of
  Irrigation in the State, sadly enough it is not well
  harnessed. Government should go into serious
  negotiations with Ogun-Osun River Basin Authority
  with a view to putting the Dam into proper use and it
  can serve up to Ilora and Akinyele Local Government
  to encourage dry season farming.
CONSTRUCTION OF DAMS
 Other rivers will be identified in the state to facilitate
  irrigation farming.
LONG TERM GOALS
CHANNELISATION
 Major rivers within the state will be channelised
  for guided flow to prevent flooding.
