He also reassured the community that efforts are underway to minimize disruption, stating, ‘We are committed to ensuring that every household has access to adequate water.’ Residents are encouraged to conserve water during this critical period and only use it for essential activities.
The Water Board will provide regular updates on the repair progress and the resumption of normal water supply. In the meantime, community members are urged to collaborate and assist each other in this challenging situation, ensuring no one is left without water. The cooperation of all is vital as the board works to restore essential services to the affected areas.
