Law explains the significance of the office to the community. The people of Etcheguin were very excited about having this office because this is where the deputy president will be able to interfere with the community direct and talk to the president of the deputy president. The deputy president is a chairperson of quite a number of inter-ministerial task teams, including the task team for water and sentences. So that will be able to help us.

Frustrated residents from Bronkhorstspruit in the city of Tuanes say they are relying on water from boreholes as they feel that the water supplied from tankers is not safe. Residents have been unable to drink tap water after the Bronkhorstspruit water treatment works, stopped treating water with chlorine. Health authorities have linked more than 500 cases to gastrointestinal illness in Bronkhorstspruit and surrounding areas to contaminated water after the city.

Of Torne initially failed to warn residents about the water quality. This is what some residents have to say: we are not able to drink this water as it gives us diarrhea. We also don't have money to buy water, and we're using flushing toilets, so we can't live without water. I don't drink this water from the tankers. I drink borehole water, which I get at the nearby school.

I don't trust water brought by the tankers as they have previously made me sick.
