4 Lion members from Mzizima Club and several well drilling experts went on a survey mission to assess the water supply of a school in Kipawa.
Two adjoining primary schools located roughly 2 km from the airport have been without water for over five years. We were told that the schools boasting of a total of 4100 pupils were having no tap water for all this time.
We managed to provide water after flushing out the shallow well which was unused and had amassed a lot of dirt and impurities.
A decision was made to provide clean water to the schools through dispensers and piped water to the toilets also.
The team than proceeded to visit the maternity wards at the Muhimbili hospital to address a similar situation. We learnt that they had a storage of almost 55,000 litres of water at ground level which only needed a little effort by the authorities to manage effective supply to the wards.
