This work is a contribution to the study of the quality of drinking water in Niger Republic. It concerns the physicochemical characterization of Tibiri drinking water. Thus, pH, conductivity, temperature and, some anions (nitrates, chlorides, fluorides, and bicarbonates) concentration are evaluated. The results obtained showed that this water are acidic and not agree WHO standards of drinking water; their conductivity indicate that their degree of mineralization is low and obey also to the WHO standards; the temperature measured as well as anions concentrations determined are in agreement with WHO standards. Therefore, Tibiri drinking water quality is quite good in terms of temperature, conductivity, and ions analyzed.
