OTHER MAJOR CAUSES OF THE SUFFERING OF THE VULNERABLE GROUPS IN THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. The true position in developing countries like Nigeria is that the majority of the physically challenged persons are literary starving to death on account of poverty and depends purely on the uncertain charities of other impoverished citizens. They do not have access to decent food, water, clothing, adequate housing, basic education, primary healthcare and other basic necessities of life. Recent tales of woes and lamentations from Oji River Rehabilitation Centre for the Civil War Veterans (Nigeria) paints a picture of complete abandonment of the physically challenged fellows by the three tiers of government in Nigeria. The inmates of the Centre, according to them earn their living by begging for arms which has brought shame and humiliation to them and their family, with their children dropping out of school. Meanwhile no effort whatsoever has been made by the government to develop the potentials of these people and make them employable or to provide for their food and health needs. Thus their wheelchairs are worn-out and begging for repairs. Ladies and Gentlemen, who can bell out the situation? WEEP NOT! Living Water Foundation has come to give the life of these people a meaning. But not without your support. Contact details: Tel: +1-757-391-4756 Website: www.livingwaterfoundationministries.org
