New research has revealed that most African countries have enough groundwater reserves to face at least five years of drought.
The report which was jointly released on Monday by WaterAid and the British Geological Survey (BGS), noted that there is enough groundwater under the continent of Africa for most countries to survive at least five years of drought- and some, more than 50 years.
The report titled – Groundwater: The world's neglected defence against climate change, is coming as the world water forum begins in the Senegalese capital of Dakar.
Imoh Edet brings us details in this report.
