 drinking water quality for human consumption is a global issue of paramount importance. In this study, we assessed the physical and chemical properties of drinking water from five major sources in Sapeel, Delta State. We used a convenient sampling method to collect 40 water samples from river, rain, well, borehole, and sachet water sources. Our results showed that the pH of the water sources ranged from 4.5 to 6.8, the total dissolved solids, TDS, ranged between 5 and 14,000 milligrams per litre, milligram L, the electrical conductivity, EC, ranged between 10 and 740 microseemons per centimeter, SCM, and the turbidity range between 0.01 and 23.9 nephelometric turbidity units, NTU. The mean levels of chloride, calcium, iron, lead, copper, and cadmium were all below the maximum permissible limits set by the World Health Organization, WHO, and the National Standards for Drinking Water Quality, NSDWQ.
