Bauchi House of Rep members construct 10 deep well as constituency project

A member of the Bauchi State House of Representatives representing Toro Federal Constituency, Umar Muda Lawal said he is constructing 10 deep wells in different towns in his constituency.

Moreso, he disclosed the info on his Twitter account, where he stressed that he embarked on the project based on the popular demand of his people.

“This time we are going outside the box to construct 10 Deep wells in 10 rural towns and villages of Toro LGA. Because traditional wells are often more reliable and last longer than any modern small-scale water supply system. Most wells today are centuries old and still working.”

“For someone that has to go as far as 10 kilometres to fetch water, a single well close could mean the world. You may not appreciate it but we can’t stand and watch our people suffer. We are looking for ways to ameliorate their situation as we figure out a lasting solution,” the lawmaker tweeted.
