ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND ITS ASSOCIATED HEALTH RISKS AMONG RESIDENTS OF APAPA LGA OF LAGOS STATE

Abstract

Environmental pollution is a growing global concern, and its impact on public health is a critical issue that requires urgent attention. This study investigates environmental pollution and its associated health risks among residents of Apapa Local Government Area (LGA) in Lagos State, Nigeria. Apapa, being a major industrial and commercial hub, faces unique environmental challenges that may pose risks to the health of its residents.

The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis of air and water quality parameters with qualitative data obtained through surveys and interviews. Air quality is assessed by measuring concentrations of particulate matter (PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and ozone (O3). Water quality parameters include microbial contamination, heavy metals, and chemical pollutants in selected water sources.

In addition to environmental monitoring, surveys and interviews are conducted among residents to assess their awareness of environmental pollution, perceived health impacts, and adaptive strategies employed. The study also investigates the correlation between pollution levels and reported health issues.

Preliminary findings reveal elevated levels of air and water pollutants in the study area, exceeding recommended standards. Residents express varying levels of awareness and concern regarding environmental pollution, with reported health issues such as respiratory problems, skin diseases, and gastrointestinal disorders. The qualitative analysis provides insights into residents’ coping mechanisms and perceptions of environmental risks.

The study’s significance lies in its potential to inform environmental management policies, public health interventions, and community engagement strategies. By understanding the specific environmental challenges faced by residents of Apapa LGA, this research contributes to the broader discourse on the nexus between environmental pollution and public health in urban settings, especially those characterized by industrial activities. The findings aim to facilitate evidence-based decision-making for mitigating environmental pollution and protecting the health and well-being of the residents in Apapa LGA and similar urban contexts.
