Citizens in Berti Al Shihet area in Al Salam Locality in Sudan’s West Kordofan state have complained about lack of drinking water in the area.
Speaking to Radio Tamazuj on Sunday, several local residents said both people and animals are suffering from thirst caused by a breakdown of the only hand pump, which had been the only source of clean drinking water in the area during the dry season.
They appealed to Abulgasim El Amin Baraka, the governor of West Kordofan state to fulfill a promise he made late last year to dig a borehole for the people to solve the water problem.
