"Before the protection of Murumbi Spring, our water was ever-dirty and full of algae. Fetching was also a challenge as one had to step in the water as you fetched it. I had to wake up very early each morning in order to get clean water before it got contaminated."
"Life now is good as I come to fetch water any time of the day. The water is also clean and we enjoy drinking it. We do not worry whenever it rains as our water never gets contaminated."
"I am a businesswoman who buys and sells cereals in our local market. In the past, I would delay going to the market as I waited to fetch water first. But being late to the market as a businesswoman means missing the best goods that arrive early, and thus making low sales."
"Since the burden of fetching water was lifted, I leave early on market days and even if I arrive home late in the evening, I am still able to get clean water."
