Mopipi residents drink stinking water

In an interview with Mmegi, the chairperson of Mopipi Village Development Committee (VDC) Golesamang Mogolodi feared an outbreak of water borne diseases if the situation was not resolved soon.

“Since the beginning of April we have been faced with shortage of water and residents drink dirty water from quarries in the outskirts of the village. We are forced to remove animal carcasses and other dirt before drawing water to drink. Mokobaxane village, just 8km away used to rescue us, but is also faced with shortage of water,” Mogolodi said.
