Jigawa committed to provision of potable water for all

The Jigawa State government has expressed its commitment to providing potable water in all the Local Government Areas of the state.

Alhaji Shuaibu Musa, the Special Adviser to Governor Muhammad Badaru on Water and Sanitation, gave the assurance when he inspected newly installed 100 KVA and 50 KVA water pumping generators in Babura Local Government Area of the state.

He told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) over the weekend that the pumping generators were installed at Babura Main Pump House and Police Barrack Water Scheme respectively.

“The state government under Gov. Muhammad Badaru, is committed to providing potable drinking water to all nooks and crannies of the state,” he said.

He added that the gesture was to enhance water supply and ease the difficulties being experienced by the people in accessing portable water.

Musa, who commended the state government’s efforts toward enhancing access to portable water, called on the people to protect all basic amenities provided by government from vandalism.

The governor’s aide went round other water facilities in the council including the Jibril Ayinla Pump House, Kofar Yamma Solar Powered Water Scheme and Late Sani Babura Primary School.
