Japan donates US$ 106,000

Japan has made a further grant of some US $106,000 to promote public health and good governance in Nigeria, AFP reported an embassy statement as saying.

The statement said the amount brought to US $154,000 the total of such grants which had been approved for non-governmental organisations by Japan in 1999. The money will go to three organisations and is to be used to dig boreholes, build public toilets in primary schools in Lagos and promote good governance in the country, AFP reported.
