Access to clean drinking water and sanitation facilities should be fundamental human rights. A 2022 report by the World Bank has shown that approximately 70 million Nigerians had no access to basic drinking water services and 114 million were without basic sanitation facilities in 2021. From building wells, repairing pipework from old infrastructure, to building toilet blocks and delivering education around good hygiene, our clean water and sanitation programme works to reduce disease and premature death due to a lack of access to these basic human needs.
