The Plateau office of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), constructed and furnished 38 classrooms and 22 primary health centres in 2016, Mr Samuel Damla, the Coordinator, has said.
Damla told newsmen on Thursday in Jos that it also constructed 17 boreholes and seven VIP toilets.

According to him, the projects are spread across various communities in Mangu, Barkin Ladi, Shendam, Kanke and Jos North Local Government Areas.

“The projects are mostly in the rural ares because our mandate is to alleviate the sufferings of the people in the rural communities, especially in the areas of education, health, water and sanitation.

“We have also constructed boreholes and VIP toilets to promote personal hygiene in some of the communities,” he said.

He said that the SDGs office trained 2,000 youths on Google digital production and programming this year, and explained that the training would empower the youths with the requisite knowledge to harness the potential of the digital world.

“The digital world has lots of opportunities and could create many employment opportunities,” he said.


He said that funds would soon be made available to the SDGs office following the payment of N600 million counterpart funds by the state government.



“We intend to pay more attention to addressing the menace of erosion and deforestation and support people venturing into agriculture in 2018,” he stated.
