Abstract

The study seeks to examine empirically the pervasive effect of Groundwater pollution GWP on human health on selected locations at Otefe Oghara Delta State, Nigeria. The study employs experimental research design to investigate the impact of GWP on human health, which specifically focuses on the community water sources and thus assesses the relationship between different water quality parameters and blood lead levels of selected residents over an extended period of time. The study considers and examines various water quality parameters and the blood lead levels using multiple regression methodology to establish and uncover their performances effect of the various explanatory variables on the response variable. Experimental data from the community water sources were generated for analysis. The result reveals that the water quality parameters considered in the study, significantly elevated the blood lead levels, with huge attendant consequences on human health. Finally, from the findings it was clearly inferred that GWP has as a significant effect on human health. Odior, A. K. | Okonta, S. D.
