Pollution

nwọ́che

Oil spill pollution has remained a source of several international litigations in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Impacts of small recurrent crude oil spills on the physicochemical, microbial and hydrobiological properties of the Nun River, a primary source of drinking water, food and recreational activities for communities in the region. Samples were collected from six sampling points along the stretch of the lower Nun River over a 3-week period. Temperature, pH salinity, turbidity, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen, phosphate, nitrate, heavy metals, BTEX, PAHs and microbial and plankton contents were assessed to ascertain the quality and level of deterioration of the river. The results obtained were compared with the baseline data from studies, national and international standards. The results of the physicochemical parameters indicated a significant deterioration of the river quality due to oil production activities. Turbidity, TDS, TSS, DO, conductivity and heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn) were in breach of the national and international limits for drinking water aquatic health. They were also significantly higher than the initial baseline conditions of the river. Also, there were noticeable changes in the phytoplankton, zooplankton and microbial diversities due to oil pollution across the sampling zones.[10]

Àjí Nun climate range at the moment has a water temperature is 24°C and the average water temperature is 24°C.[11]

Ójó kí ochu élà nolu ogwu nyówó me bíe 2017, the Nun burst its banks overnight and submerged residential homes along its bank in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital.[12]

On 16 November 2019, four journalists returning from a polling station, on governorship election duties, were rescued when their boat capsized.[13]
