Horses and dogs seemed to be waiting for their employers to queue for water from the village well, which was small and murky.

It is not uncommon for disputes, when some can’t wait in line, an inescapable fight.
When the water discharge is drained, this mama’s father has to wait for the pause to water the well out again. This waiting time is sometimes used to find and clean lice in the hair.

Meanwhile, horses can’t wait to get water, drinking from spilled wells mixed with mud.

These wells are 50-200 meters from the eastern settlement of Mbinudita, they struggle to get quality clean water.

Hopefully soon there is a solution for clean water for the citizens of Mbinudita, without them having to scramble and struggle, for a better healthy quality of life.
