Rwanda’s Water and Sanitation Corporation announced on September 13, 2019, the following:
”Dear Customers; Nyabarongo water has become too turbid to be treated. This will affect water supply in the following areas: Nyarutarama, Kibagabaga, Bumbogo, Gihogere, Rukiri, Ruturusu, Nyagatovu, Nyabisindu and Bibare. Rwimbogo and Gasaraba will be affected too. Bear with us.”
The term ”turbid” means ”muddy”. In other words, the government is admitting that River Nyabarongo water has turned into muddy water. Everyone has known that since a decade ago. Raw sewage is dumped into the river. Mining activities dump dirt into the river. What a shame.
