Abstract: The study examines the socio-economic impacts of the production and sales of pure water in Ekiti State. It highlights the various governmental policies on the method of production and distribution of pure water to the people and their attendance effects on both the producer and final consumers. Findings reveal that the production of wholesome pure water unregulated by the relevant governmental agencies has been one of the major causes of water borne disease such as cholera and typhoid fever in the state. It was however suggested that government should empower the National Agency for food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) with the necessary legal backing to see to the implementation of the regulated policies to ensure standards in the production and management of pure water in the state.
