The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) in Saudi Arabia has signed a cooperation agreement with a civil society organisation (CSO) to implement a project involving drilling of 78 medium-depth, solar-powered wells across 10 States in Nigeria.
The initiative, expected to benefit approximately 733,350 people, aims to provide safe drinking water, support domestic water needs, and enhance water access in low-income areas by reducing waterborne infections and improving nutrition.
The project seeks to improve the quality of life and save lives, particularly among vulnerable populations. The agreement was part of KSrelief’s broader humanitarian efforts in the water and sanitation sector, implemented by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to support vulnerable countries worldwide.
