Manx aid pays for solar-powered boreholes

Villagers in west Africa are celebrating after aid from the Isle of Man helped their communities end years of water scarcity.

Three new solar-powered boreholes have been installed in Mangu in Nigeria after donations from the Isle of Man government.

The project was launched with the Catholic Agency For Overseas Development organisation to provide clean water to the three villages.

An online video shows the projects being commissioned.
