This study presents a water quality analysis aiming to understand their relationship with prevalent health problemsreported in Kano metropolis. The study collected ten water samples from each eight distinct areas within Kano State, Nigeria. pH levels ranged from 6.50 to 7.20, falling within the permissible range recommended by the WHO. The highest turbidity was51.66NTU. Hardness ranged from 158.6 to 297.7 mg/L, falling within the limit. Alkalinity levels surpassed the standard in most areas, while TDS fell below the standard. Cadmium concentrations ranged from 0.04 mg/L to 0.162 mg/L, with both values exceeding the WHO limit. Nickel levels ranged from 0.369 mg/L to 1.288 mg/L, surpassing the WHO recommendation of 0.2 mg/L. Lead concentrations reached alarming levels, exceeding the recommended value of 1.00 mg/L, with Municipal and Fagge recording concentrationsof 3.7882 mg/L and 3.5627 mg/L respectively.
