August Report
Juma had a meeting today at Meru with our Member of Parliament (MP) and the patron to our Constituency Development Fund regarding the Lokuniyani water project. The purpose of the meeting was to brief the MP on our plans following the damaged well and seek his consent and support for a community water point near the borehole. The MP had no objection for us to go ahead with the project though he can't promise any financial support. He proposed we seek audience with the water engineer to find out the water yield and if a second connection is possible. He also asked that we organize a meeting with the Lokuniyani water users committee as the CDF has handed over the project to the community and they are current holders of the water project. The purpose of the meeting will be to brief the community on our proposal, inform them about the community benefit and get community consent. We are currently setting up a meeting with the community.
