Benue State Converts Water Board to Corporation for Improved Service Delivery

Benue State has transformed its Water Board into a Water Corporation to improve service delivery and encourage public-private partnerships in the water sector. The move, approved by the state government, aims to expand operations and attract investments.

This decision follows the passage of the Water Reform Bill by the Benue State House of Assembly and subsequent assent by Governor Hyacinth Alia. The state is actively working to ensure consistent access to clean water across various local government areas, with ongoing projects to enhance water infrastructure and services.
