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

The violent clashes between farmers and herders have made Fulani pastoralist communities in central Nigeria no-go areas for most outsiders. These communities are simply too dangerous to visit. The residents of Ruga Fulani are predominantly Muslim. As exemplified by Christ while on earth, we took His love to Ruga Fulani and drilled a badly needed water well because we know God's love is for all. Before our visit, the community relied on dug-out wells and a pond to meet their drinking and sanitation needs. With the help of Lifewater donors, we made safe water available to them. The community expressed deep appreciation for the work done. |
