Further, RNM is committed to addressing the need to remove conditions that lead to abject poverty, cycles of disease and ill health, especially among children and women through sustainable development. This includes addressing a lack of basic life's skills or inadequate job skills which leads to low productivity & development in targeted communities. We focus on alleviating acute shortages of sanitary drinking water which significantly contribute to poor health & hygiene among the poor and disenfranchised. A. Water Wells - (i) In partnership with Living Water International, RNM drilled 9 new wells in 2014, and rehabilitation of 6 existing wells - all serving approximately 20,000 people, and thousands of livestocks. (ii) WASH - In addition, in 2014, RNM trained over 530 nationals through Church mobilization and community engagements in hygiene education. RNM also trained over 3500 elementary and Secondary School students in Nigeria on WASH (Water And Sanitation Hygiene) to help and improve overall community health in schools, villages and urban centers during the Ebola outbreak that raised hygiene awareness and its importance in the 2nd half of 2014. 1. ABIA State: Completed 2 deep wells in Abia State using our Schramm T-64 Rig and Water trucks. Worked on several equipment breakdowns - had serious engine problems requiring a lot of money to repair the old vehicles which took much longer than expected in terms of service down-times because often finding US auto parts in Africa was difficult. Completed 6 other Community partnership boreholes in Benue State. VTEN: RNM also provided several job skills training opportunities in water well drilling, pump installation and repairs for several of the Nigerian indigent workers with the ministry in Africa by bringing expertriat trainers / rig operator to teach them hands-on.
