Mawan Muortat Lack of common sense... I am an expert in water, as is EVERY Nairobian... because the colonial British did this: Pump up to a HUGE reservoir in Hurlingham (now current MoD in nairobi) then use gravity to push water downhill everywhere! The system worked for 50 years... Here in Juba the obvious hill is Jebel Kujour... one pipe up to the top, then multiple feeder pipes to all the many neighbourhoods... the Japanese repaired the water plant, did not do the piping, which is plastic and very shallow, so when they handed over the water station, GoSS started pumping and the water rushed everywhere about 300 metres and began leaking all over... JICA spent $20Mn... and achieved NOTHING! Then USAID came and put up a water collecting station... for water tankers near Notos restaurant costing $200k and VOILA! It became USAID WATER PROJECT...
