In this episode, we have an engaging conversation with Bibilore Omotosho, Chair of the International Water Association (IWA) Nigeria and Principal Consultant at HSP&BEES Environmental Consulting. Bibilore shares her extensive experience consulting for both private and government sectors on broad environmental issues across Nigeria. She provides a perfect summary of the main challenges Nigeria faces regarding water management.
Nigeria is a unique country with a population of 220 million people and an average age of just 18 years. Over the next 25 years, this population is expected to almost double to around 380 million. With such rapid growth, effective water management becomes incredibly important. Bibilore emphasizes the critical need for robust water management strategies to support this growing population.
Throughout our chat, Bibilore sheds light on the diverse environmental challenges Nigeria faces and the urgent need for solutions. From water scarcity to pollution and infrastructure issues, she covers it all. Her insights highlight the importance of education and training in improving water management practices, and how initiatives like The Water MBA can play a vital role in this endeavor.
