Sir,
The Bauchi State Government of Nigeria is implementing the 3rd National Urban Water Sector Reform Programme, which is funded by the world bank. Consequently, a Regulatory Unit was created for the Bauchi State Water and Sewerage Corporation. We came across your website and we are impressed by how far you have gone in regulation.
The Members of the Regulatory Unit, who are beginners in regulatory affairs are looking at the possibility of a study tour to EWURA
Eagerly awaiting your response on this possibility.
Thank you very much.
