A message from the community

Sir,

Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus. We the Wuye Wuye community in Gwagwalada area council wish to write and express our profound gratitude to your team for drilling a borehole in our community.

May God continue to increase and expand your vision, may God bless and uphold you in your future endeavors.

Andrew Tomale

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

Driving through narrow roads/ paths to Wuye Wuye is a very tiring journey. When you imagine folks with water on their heads ascending and descending terrains in the location, you get a correct picture of the sufferings and pains that the people face daily while in search for water. A well closer to the people of Wuye Wuye solves a major problem. Wells in the area are however, very deep and may not be very suitable for handpumps. With poor or non-existent power supplies hand pumps remain the most viable alternative.
