The Rafi Local Government in Niger says it spent N47 million on construction of 60 motorized boreholes in different parts of the area.
The local government Chairman, Alhaji Gambo Kagara, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Minna on Monday.
Kagara said that the council embarked on the projects because of its commitment to providing potable water for both human beings and animals.
He explained that the project had since been inaugurated and handed over to the community leaders for proper supervision.
The chairman said the council would continue to initiate people-oriented programme that would enhance the well-being of the people irrespective of political party differences.
He urged residents to volunteer information on movement of bad elements in their midst.
