Mr. Kuusaari Alim Ebong, Assemblyman for Chache Electoral Area in the Bole District has appealed to government and non-governmental organisations to provide communities in the area with potable water.
He said people in the area had no other choice than to compete with animals for water in the streams for water.
Mr. Alim, who made the appeal through Yagbon News said the situation becomes terrible during the dry season, causing the streams to dry up.
He mentioned some of the communities as Manukoraa, Dasokoraa, Donkorkoraa and Jankpulokoraa.
The Assemblyman said situation was affecting the economic activities of the people and if not addressed could affect the health of the people due to the quality of water they were drinking.
He said the people had to travel over a distance of kilometres to the Black river to draw water.
Mr Alim, said a borehole drilled for the people of Jankpulokoraa, has broken down and could not be used and appealed to government, benovolent organizations and individuals to come to their aid.
