The Ventilated Improved Pit (VIP) latrine that has been serving the locals of Koubah Bingo may have to be demolished soon, as it’s located on a portion of land earmarked for road construction. The Sanitation Committee will decide on a site where a new one can be built.
Many beneficiaries of the Goat Loan Programme are excited about the evidence of transformation in their lives and the improvement to their economy. Salamatu, a beneficiary who has kept and nurtured her goats well, has begun her loan repayment by giving back two goats. She hopes to pay up the outstanding balance in a few months.
