- Village Notes
- David and the surveyor mr Charles went to nabituluntu village to continue carrying out the second surveying process after the first point which was cited the water failed to clear up.David and the surveyor started the process from the second point which was the second option for the first surveyor just incase there was chance of finding the water. They finally got the best point about one kilometer from where they had drilled. The residents were so happy they called mr Charles and David for a prayer because they thought they had lost hope and they kept on thanking God for not forgetting them . The surveyor and David advised residents to keep safely the point they had cited for the next drilling process.After all that David called the community members and encouraged them to continue working together as it was before and he also told them that it is the only way which could enable their village to improve and grow,he also encouraged them to maintain the required hygiene standards and keep contributing towards their borehole account.
