The Department of Water and Energy has successfully completed and handed over the Manda Water Project to the Lamu Water and Sewerage Company (LAWASCO), marking a major milestone in addressing the long-standing water challenges in that area.

The new infrastructure is expected to provide clean and reliable water to over 200 households in Manda.

The project includes the installation of three water points and direct water connections to key community facilities, such as Manda Primary School and the local mosque.

This development is set to improve not only the community’s access to water but also its overall health and well-being.

Local residents extended their appreciation to H.E the Governor, CECM for water, and the Area MCA for their oversight and cooperation.

They have also praised the collaborative efforts that led to the completion of the project, highlighting its potential to enhance education, daily living, and sanitation in the region.

As the infrastructure is officially handed over to LAWASCO, the company will take on the responsibility of maintaining and operating the water system, with a continued focus on sustainability and service quality.

In attendance were Shella Ward Member of County Assembly Atwaa Salim, County engineers among others.
