A message from the community

We the members of Ledi II community, wish to appreciate Lifewater Canada/Nigeria for the rehabilitation of our hand pump borehole. We have nothing to say other than to be thankful and happy with the organization. We pray for an abundance of blessings upon the organization. Yours faithfully, Aliyu Musa 09038447505


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

My name is Aliyu Musa. I'd like to thank Lifewater for helping us. I am very happy to see the professional engineers sent by the organisation to our community to help rehabilitate our borehole. Previously, our community lacked clean water, forcing women to seek water from other communities. With Lifewater Nigeria and Lifewater Canada's perfect rehabilitation of our once-damaged borehole, we now have enough clean water to drink and use again. Our women would no longer go to other neighboring communities in search of dirty water. I want to say a big thank you to the organisation on behalf of the entire community. God bless you all.
