Today is World Water Day, an annual event that aims to highlight the problems millions of people around the world have in accessing clean, safe drinking water. 

 

The United Nations children's agency UNICEF says that on the continent of Africa alone, 190 million children in ten countries are at the highest risk from a convergence of three water-related threats - inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene-related diseases.

The triple threat was found to be most acute in Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, and Somalia.

 

Central Africa is one of the world's most water-insecure and climate-impacted regions, according to the UNICEF analysis.

Yes in some countries, not in 3th world countries, there are other laws and rules.

At least Nigeria has the wealth and the means to desalinate water as Saudi does, but of course it's up to us in "rich" western countries to save them from problems of their own making!
