Summary

Description
Afrikaans: Osman Adbi Nur, 72, van Kulaleystat vertel: "Dis nou vyf jaar gelede dat hierdie waterpunt laas water gehad het. Ons water word van Elado, ses myl hiervandaan, per donkie en donkiekar aankarwy. Die meerderheid vee het gevrek, maar ons probleem lê nou by die mense. Die ma's, kinders, bejaardes en weeskinders staar 'n groot risiko in die gesig. Ons sit met baie probleme om daardie water te kry. Daar is nie genoeg water om klere te was, of genoeg om te drink nie. Ook nie genoeg om vir moeders wat kraam of vir die siekes voorsiening te maak nie. Vir skoolkinders is daar nie water om vir hulle te kook nie. Ek self, soos jy sien, is swak, en my diere is weg. Ek het nege kinders. Hul ma is dood. Ek het geen diere nie en ek is op hierdie ouderdom."
English: Osman Adbi Nur, 72, is from Kulaley village:

"It's been five years since this water point last had water. We get our water from Elado which is six miles away from here, using donkeys and donkey carts.

“A majority of the livestock are dead, but our problem now lies with the human beings. The mothers, children, elderly and orphans are facing a big risk. We are facing a lot of problems in getting that water. There is not enough water to wash clothes. There is not enough water to drink; to cater for mothers who are giving birth; and for the sick. And for the children who are in school there is no water to cook for them.

“Myself, as you see, I am weak, my animals are gone. I have nine kids. Their mother has died. I have no animals and I am this age."
