Nyala-North water crisis

Citizens of Nyala-North face an increasing shortage of drinking water, with the price of a barrel rising to 14 pounds. Saturday, youth took to the streets in a neighborhood, demanding the minister to step down, a local resident told Radio Dabanga. The authorities have not done anything to resolve this shortage, as the crisis enters its third week. Nyala-North official Sorour Ahmed Abdallah acknowledges the water crisis, explaining that Nyala does not get its drinking water from the city ground water, but from the Valley. Each year, in the beginning of January, the Valley dries up, which cannot solely be solved by rainfall or the project Nyala Baggara Basin.
