Jalango's kind gesture
"When I was building my village home, I put up tanks with 10k litres and 5k litres. You see most of the time I am not in the house or I just come over during the weekend. So we decided how we can make the community happy. So we came and decided to create a water point. What used to hurt me was I would see people going to fetch water in the river yet there was water here (in his compound)," he said.
