The former include of basement aquifers in tropical Africa. annual rainfall in West Africa and especially in the Volta basin. Weathered zone of crystalline basement aquifers (Nyagwambo 2006), including both soil and Basement aquifers are developed within the weathered overburden and fractured bedrock of crystalline rocks of intrusive and/or metamorphic origin which are mainly of Precambrian age. The bulk of the shortfall will have to be met groundwater, much of which will be derived from basement aquifers.
