A displaced person pointed out the difficulty in getting drinking water due to the stopping of a British organization from working in the area. The displaced person told Radio Dabanga that the lines for water starts from three in the morning and that the women cross a long distance to Wadi Madri to get water. He noted that a fee of 25 pounds was imposed to register the students in schools which led a lot to drop out of school, especially those from families with large number of school-aged children in them.
