Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

Driving through narrow roads/ paths to Wuye Wuye is a very tiring journey. When you imagine folks with water on their heads ascending and descending terrains in the location, you get a correct picture of the sufferings and pains that the people face daily while in search for water. A well closer to the people of Wuye Wuye solves a major problem. Wells in the area are however, very deep and may not be very suitable for handpumps. With poor or non-existent power supplies hand pumps remain the most viable alternative.
