A message from the community

On behalf of the entire people in Ome community, we wish to appreciate Lifewater Canada/Nigeria for saving the lives of our community members by rehabilitating three (3) of our boreholes. The community members have been going to the stream to fetch contaminated water, but today, it a cause for celebration. Once again thank you. 

Yours faithfully,

Obadiah Clack

Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

I am Mr. Matthew from the Ome community. We have been facing water scarcity in our community because we don't have drinking water. The community river is far from the residence; even at that, cattle do drink from the same water, and frogs are seen all over the water. The children hardly have their baths as there is no water to bathe them. It's an honour coming from Lifewater Canada and Nigeria to us today to rehabilitate the dilapidated borehole within the community. Thank you so much, and God will reward the organization largely.
