“…This value was lower than the global average of 10 Bq/L, the Standard Organization of Nigeria's (SON) 11.1 Bq/L, the European Union Commission's 100 Bq/L, the United Nations Scientific Committee on Atomic Radiation's (UNSCEAR) 4.0-40.0 Bq/L, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (11.1 Bq/L) (USEPA). The results of Zakari et al [21] , who discovered a mean radon concentration of 2.29 Bq/L is within the same range, are consistent with our discovery.…”
