Rivers runs along its bank, while lake is enclosed by land. For stream it's not that d/f from river, the major d/f is the size and depth. River is always larger. 39 Likes |

Dokitadotun: Lake is a body of water that is surrounded by land, and doesn't flow but maybe be Fed by a river or a river may pour out of it, they're usually fresh water but salt water lakes do exists. Eg Lake Chad. Stream is a small body of water that is running. Note, a stream may empty into a lake, a river, a fall or even a sea. Stream are usually freash water. River On the other hand may form from a lake, stream, spring or even any other water body, they're larger than streams and flows. E.g. River Benue. 33 Likes 4 Shares |

It depends on the kind of spiritual beings/powers you will find in each water. Lakes have always been the ancestral home of ogbanje (spirit child aka Abiku). History has it our forefathers when in desperate need of a child would seek help from the goddess of the lake. Rivers According to science, a river is a natural flowing watercourse usually freshwater, flowing into an ocean, sea or a lake. What this portends is that you will find similar spiritual beings in the sea and in the river. It is a long known fact that fresh Mammywaters have always been the one ruling the river world, they have an empire running there. Little wonder River state is the state with the highest number of mammywaters in the world and even the popular but late Queen of the coast Joanne Rivers was believed to have traced her ancestry to the cursed city. Stream A stream is the scouting center for all marine spirits roaming the earth, it is the water with the highest recorded number of deaths worldwide and these deaths can be easily traced to the handiwork of spirits in the marine realm. Marine scouts have a knack for visiting the streams for potential talents who they eventually drown, transport the spirit of the drowned victim to the underworld, train and later release to the world as ogbanjes.
