Explanation:
heya..
ENC is more for Oxygen. These factors result in the smaller bond angle for water molecules than in Ammoniamolecule. In a Lone pair: lp, the electrons are closer to central atom than in a bond pair: bp. ... Anotherreason we could give is that there is agreater s-character in the N-H bonds(hybrid orbitals) in ammonia.

Answer :---
Ammonia has greater bond angle.
A lone pair takes up more space (in VSEPR terms) than a bonded hydrogen. NH3 has one pair, H2O has two, so the remaining hydrogens have to squeeze closer together.
