Some of our focus areas

Our Featured Courses & Campaigns

01

Culture and Social Activities

Socialization of citizens is through the family, lineage, village, and community-based units that are often patriarchal, and the residential units are established through the rule of patrilocal or father’s lineage.

02

Education

There are numerous elementary, secondary, and vocational schools in Ntigha with Ntigha Secondary Grammar School, Eziama Ntigha; Secondary Technical School, Amapu Ntigha; and Our Lady of Mercy/Bishop Anthony Nwedo’s Juniorate, Amapu Ntigha.

03

Health

The health situation in Ntigha is generally good, with access to basic healthcare services such as clinics and hospitals. However, like many rural areas in Nigeria, there are still challenges such as limited access to specialized medical care and a high prevalence of diseases such as malaria and typhoid.

04

Economic

Despite the outflow of young men and women into the urban areas, the Ntigha economy is primarily agrarian with a majority of people actively engaged in farming and selling of farm produce at the two major markets

You can provide ongoing support for our work, by joining our monthly giving program, NiNA Partners.
