Investment for nothing: Poor quality of construction in Chimbunila: newly inagurated water system collapses in Lumbi

The water storage tank tower, which was inaugurated just a few days ago by the district administrator, collapsed in the Chimbunila District, Niassa province, northern Mozambique.

The population, who had expressed relief from the suffering of accessing the precious liquid in the Lumbi-1 community, was shocked when, on Tuesday (11.03), they saw the infrastructure of the small system destroyed.

The incident occurred just one week after the official handover to the population by the District Administrator, Saleão Gabriel.

The residents point to the poor quality of the construction as the cause of the collapse. The system had also been built recently.

The collapsed tower is located near a school. However, there are no reports of human casualties. (Jaime Paculeque)
