dc.description.abstract | Under International human rights law, water is a human right. Guidelines have been laid out for consideration towards ensuring a progressive realisation of access to water. South Africa has embarked on an enviable approach towards a progressive realisation of access to water. Nigeria on the other hand has struggled towards ensuring the same for Nigerian citizens. This paper highlights the international law provisions and guidelines on access to water and sets out reflections from South Africa. It recommends that Nigeria should consider an adoption of some of these guidelines towards ensuring access to water for Nigerian citizens. | en_US |
