The residents have lived without proper water services for over 50 years. With the renovation of a water tank, 13 water drawing points in the village and the installation of solar panels and water pumps, the project will benefit over 7,000 households.

Additionally, the government disbursed US $100m as advanced funds to implement a water supply network extension project to reach more households in Makang’wa and neighbouring villages.
