Water Supply Projects In Katsina You Need To Know

Water remains a major factor in human life and living.

Do you know that over 63 million Nigerians still have no access to potable drinking water? Each person on earth requires 40 litres of water daily averagely to drink, cook, bath, wash and thrive, yet many communities have to trek long distances to access water. Most times such water come from infected sources and they are constantly prone to deadly water borne diseases such as Cholera. Access to basic drinking water is a human right according to the United Nations and we take that mandate seriously for the rescue of humans all over communities where we work.
