The African Union (AU) has appointed social justice advocate Dr. Martins Abhulimhen of the Jose Foundation UK as its Ambassador to lead the initiative aimed at providing clean water for communities across Africa.
Under the ‘Jose Water for Africa Initiative,’ the Foundation will work to ensure that millions of African communities gain access to clean and potable water.
In a statement released in Abuja, Dr. Abhulimhen was recognized for his commitment to social justice, education, and philanthropy, highlighting his efforts to empower marginalized communities and bridge the gap between the rich and poor.
