CBN Living Water Wells program focuses on providing the poor with fresh, potable water in various rural communities in Nigeria. Most of these wells are located in semi-arid and arid communities mostly in northern Nigeria where potable water is scarce. This quarter we dug wells in Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, Niger, Plateau and Nasarawa states.
