Harriet Tusiime, the school headteacher said after reading the scuffle between the students and the village members while struggling for water, the Nile Humanitarian Development Agency decided to help them with a borehole.

Tusiime said they decided to plant the borehole near the girls’ dormitory because according to their nature, they need water most compared to the boys.
