No drinking water in Kavimvira after pipes cut by heavy rains

Since the torrential rains destroyed the bypass road and the old railway bridge, and also cut the REGIDESO pipes serving the commune of Kavimvira, the population lacks drinking water and gets its supply from the lake and the ponds. This is a public health risk: the lake water is not fit for consumption, and households are unable to buy 20 litres of drinking water at 7,000 FC or 1.5 L at 1,500 FC.

Original text

Depuis les pluies torrentielles ayant détruit la route de déviation et l'ancien pont de la voie ferrée, coupant aussi les tuyaux de la REGIDESO qui desservaient la commune de Kavimvira, la population manque d'eau potable et s'approvisionne dans le lac et les étangs. Il s'agit d'un risque de santé publique : l'eau du lac n'est pas propre à la consommation et les ménages sont incapables d'acheter 20 litres d'eau potable à 7 000 FC ou 1,5 L à 1 500 FC.
