I went there in the company of my friend after I had requested to be taken to water bodies in the town.

We arrived Ogbanenu spring water on 31st December 2014 and the route to the spring were indeed natural. The Ogbanenu spring I saw was a small water body that serves a fraction of the Anaocha people with hilly topography and some nice vegetation. It's tributaries were very insignificant, or at most hardly existed.

This, friend(now turned tour-guide) said was contrary to what it used to be. According to him, the spring used to be full of life, blooming with water and tributaries. He said it used to serve many people in the town- who use the water to solve their drinking needs- while also housing aquatic lives.

The aquatic life,as of the time I visited, was none existent.

I sought to find out the reason for the decline in the spring's live and my friend said that no one cares for the spring again, no repairs and the environment too is overlooked. 

This may have been due to the possible exodus of some young villagers- that used to take care of the spring- to the city and now, no one wants to do the job or the available elders lacks the energy to care of the spring.

Nonetheless, I will try my best to make sure that the Ogbanenu spring not just exists but blooms.
