WATER shortage is becoming an issue after more than a month of no rain in Auki.

According to residents from surrounding communities water sources are drying up and water pressure in supply pipes has dropped.

“Most of our communities depend much on rain water where it will be more challenging when drought takes place. At the moment most communities use wells for swimming and washing where they have to fetch for drinking water sources from the other communities.

“We call on the provincial government and the national government to see our need and prioritise it where two important institutes were located within the area which is Aligegeo School, Kiluufi hospital and including the capital town in Auki.”
