Dirty water coming through Stevedore taps

Dear Editor,

We, the mothers, grandmothers and aunts of Stevedore Housing Scheme demand that Guyana Water Inc take urgent steps to provide us with clean water.

For about four months, we have been enduring the following conditions:

The water coming through our taps is always very discoloured (rusty) forcing us to let the water run for 15-20 minutes before using it.

We are paying for this dirty water to run, but meanwhile GWI is saying that people are wasting water!
We demand action!

Yours faithfully,
Johnell Roach
Desiree Griffith
Rhunda Griffith
Shawndelle De Cruz
Donna Burnett,
Deslyn Fortune
Angela Warrick
Janice Neptune
Ann Ceasar
Wintress White
Destiny Eastman
Yonette Rhius
Diana Blackman
