The sorry state at the Quarters( Grace F. Akello)

I believe that the sanitary situation at the Acholi Quarter village can be improved on. I have been moving there to work at the stone quarry for the past two years, but what I always see, sometimes makes me sick.

In the first place, there are not enough toilets , so everyone feels free to go anywhere for natures calls, so with this kind set up, when it rains all is washed throughout the village, thus fear for serious outbreak of all types of diseases. Secondly, there's very poor drainage system here or none at all in some places, so water is always very free to run into houses, or wherever it can find a path.

I still wonder why nobody seems to bother at all, yet it is visited by so many people including government officials and some NGOs, and almost nothing is being done about this particular mess. Think of the thousands of lives that would be lost, should there be a cholera outbreak for example. Isn't there somebody who can take the responsibility of this hailing sitiuation? Is prevention no longer better than cure?
