A message from the community

We, the entire people of Estu Yankpa community, deeply appreciate Lifewater Canada/ Nigeria for their effort in coming to rehabilitate our long-term damaged borehole. We thank Lifewater Nigeria and pray for their safety and progress. Yours faithfully, Mohammed Dagi

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

My name is Mohammed Gaba. We suffered severe water scarcity here in the Estu Yankpa Community. All our locally dug wells have gone dry. Our children are always late and dirty for school. Only a few privileged people could afford to buy water. Our hearts are so full of joy and happiness this day. We now have clean, portable drinking water after the community broken borehole underwent rehabilitation by the Lifewater team. Thank you Lifewater, for coming to our community to restore good health and life. God bless you all.
