Water towers equipped with modular tanks are under construction in eight localities in the Kara region of Togo. The project is part of the programme to strengthen drinking water supply in this northern region of the country.
The Director General of the Togolese Water Company (TDE), Yawanke Waké Gbati, and the Director General of the Urban and Semi-Urban Water and Sanitation Heritage Company (SP-Eau) Assoutom Koumayi have just reviewed the progress of the construction works for the modular water towers in the Kara region in northern Togo. “The work is progressing well and there has been an increase in production thanks to the connection of some boreholes to the network,” they said.
The two managers visited the Kozah dam, which is the main source of drinking water in the Kara region. The water is more than two metres higher than last year. This water level is reassuring for this year. But alternative solutions must nevertheless be found, which is why we have launched work to increase the autonomy of the structures that consume large amounts of water in Kara,” says Yawanke Waké Gbati, the director general of TDE.
The project to strengthen drinking water production in Kara was initiated by Togolese Water Company (TDE), following the shortage of drinking water (due to the drought) that occurred in April 2019 in the Kara region. Read more…
