| الوصف: | The existence of an efficient accessible and reliable infrastructure does not only serve as booster to the development of trade and interchange of a modern urban economics but it also inspires life through healthy living. This study examines the residents’ access to piped water and sanitation facilities (Roro-bins) in Ilorin metropolis. Both primary and secondary sources of data including questionnaire administration, documents in government agencies and journal articles were used for the study. A systematic-random sampling technique was adopted in the selection of 408 respondents from the selected households. Descriptive statistics such as tables, cross tabulations, charts and mean were used to analyze the data. The findings of the study revealed poor access of the residents to sanitation facilities and the residents were also poorly served with piped water; these two life enhancing facilities were not evenly distributed in the study area; many of the residents are stressed before accessing the facilities as majority spend above 30 minutes and walk a long distance before getting to the nearest piped water facility. The study suggests a need for social change from poor waste disposal attitude and the provision of more boreholes within the reach of the public to serve as alternative to piped water. |
