Angwa Honourable, Ijah Dabuta, Nigeria
Replacement of worn-out pump and repairing of well.
Completed: May 17th, 2021

This is a fast expanding community that depends on open water sources like rivers and streams which are often contaminated. The community also practice open defecation; so, both human and animal faeces find their way into the streams. With 4 broken wells, you will wonder why this community suffers from such water shortages. The old Mark II pumps are worn out without any form of maintenance. Thankfully, we were able to replace all 4 with AFRIDEV pumps and drilled two new wells in emerging sections of the community. This brought such great relief and the gratitude of this community knows no bound. Purchase of water from private water sellers is a luxury many people cannot afford in this rural community where subsistence agriculture in the main occupation.

Police Barracks, Nigeria
Replacement of worn-out pump and repairing of well.
Completed: April 20th, 2021

The location was initially built for serving police officers. However, it is a mix of both serving officers, retired officers and other civilians that rely on this well for water. With high cost of purchasing water from sellers and recent scarcity of water, this broken well became an attraction. A very deep well drilled at 70 meters, it was a reservoir for water. However, with a broken handpump, it was abandoned while the community run helter-skelter to meet their water needs. The new AFRIDEV pump promised to last longer thus helping them solve the problem of frequent breakdown.

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.
