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

My name is Titi Makama, and I come from the Gbadna Community. I want to thank Lifewater for their efforts in rehabilitating our dilapidated borehole. We have experienced a lack of water for several months, and we are delighted to see that Lifewater Nigeria and Lifewater Canada promptly resolved this issue. Rehabilitating the dilapidated borehole will save us all from waterborne diseases, infections, and many other things. Thank you so much for coming to our assistance. May God uplift you all and bless the organization abundantly.
