On Saturday January 25, 2020, the Minister of Hydraulics and the Minister of African Integration and Ivorians Abroad proceeded to the inauguration of the water tower of the localities of Darala and Kafoudougou in the department of Dabakala.
This castle is located between these two villages, in reinforced concrete of 50 m3, on a height of 15 m for an amount of 295 million FCFA.
Indeed, this castle has fed more than 4,500 people until 2040.
Many people came out to welcome their new water tower.
For Laurent Tchagba, president of the ceremony, the realization of this work is a proof of the commitment of the President of the Republic, Alassane Quattara to be at the side of his brave Ivorian populations in order to improve their living conditions.
Thanks to this castle, it's the end of the ordeal of women, no more fights in the rare water points shared with the oxen, no more waterborne diseases.
The Director General of the National Drinking Water Office (ONEP), Mr. BERTE Ibrahiman also took part in this ceremony.
In addition, the spokesperson for the beneficiaries, Siaka Traoré expressed his gratitude to the Head of State who made water supply, one of the priorities of his social policy, a fundamental right.
