The affected sections include AA, BB as well as Z sections. The residents say though they are getting water from water tankers, the supply is inadequate.

“It is very difficult because now as usual I’m supposed to eat porridge in the mornings, so it means I need to skip some days where I’m not getting the porridge. So, what I’m familiar with on daily basis I feel satisfied if I have to cook my porridge and then take my tablets.

We literally just using water from buckets, but we don’t do thorough cleaning, so we are living in unhealthy conditions especially as rate paying citizens.
