The inhabitants of the rural community of Iyerekhu and it's environs continue to enjoy the supply of portable water from our source despite the harsh economic climate in Nigeria.
There has been some incidents of burst pipes in some areas and these were promptly repaired
However queuing up to fetch water in our service points has increased due to the few hours of water availability and the fact that more sources of water supply in most neigbhouring communuties have shut down due to prevailing harsh economic situation in the country, Nigeria.
The public power supply situation in this rural community still remains precarious, leading to poor water availabilty from our bolehole to the people.
While we thank GlobalGiving and our esteem donors worldwide for initiating and maintaining this project for close to a decade, we appeal for more donations to enable us provide an alternate power source that would enable us provide uninteruupted water supply to these rural population.
Our recent research showed that a solar powered surmesilble water pumping system can solve this power challenge and the estmated cost of this system is $10.000.00 {Ten thousand dollars.}
We look forward to a positive response from our esteem donors to this response.
Thank you all.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Dako Mamudu.
Project manager.
