Testimonial

Thank you sir:

On behalf of the peole of this community, we thank-you very much for providing our people with this great offer of a source of water.

We have been using the little river for many years, and have started using the hand well, but both have been drying up recently. Your offer will help us in the areas of cooking and drinking.

We will take care of this great asset and hope that you can arrange with the Kokona Local Government to have a dedication service here sometime soon.

May God bless you.
