Sule said that the project, under the leadership of the FCT Minister, Malam Mohammed Bello, was committed to providing clean and safe drinking water to FCT residents.
According to him, the government intends to tackle the perennial shortage of potable water supply in parts of FCT.
“This ambitious project is expected to provide potable water supply to 50 districts of the FCT, covering about 1.5 million residents, who hitherto depend on other sources of water that may not be hygienic and safe for use.
“Specifically, this water project is expected to provide potable water to about 50 Estates and Mass Housing Schemes around the Phase III and IV of the city,” he said.
