A message from the community

On behalf of the entire pupils of Emisagi Village, we write to appreciate Lifewater for the rehabilitation of our hand pump borehole in our village. The whole villagers are happy with what you have done for us, because before the coming of Lifewater Nigeria, we have been in critical and dangerous living condition of not having sufficient water. We only get our drinking water from the rivers and streams which is not even healthy for our consumption. But today, we now have portable water supply through the hand pump borehole. we do not have anything to say, or to offer other than to say thank you and God bless Lifewater greatly. Yours faithfully, Abubakar Zubairu


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

My name is Abubakar Naziru, I live here in Emisagi community, Before the arrival of Lifewater, we struggled to access clean drinking water. families in the community spend hours each day collecting water from distant sources. The water gotten from those sources was all dirty and full of germs. This made us sick, with the borehole been rehabilitated, the time previously spent on traveling far distances in search of water has been redirected toward improving livelihoods. Women can now invest their time in farming, cooking, and tending for the family while children can now attend school without worry. The restoration of the borehole has hugely transformed our daily life by providing time for more productive and educational activities. Thank you Lifewater, God bless you.
