The project, which cost over E20 million (approximately USD1.1 million), is aimed at providing clean and reliable water to communities in the area.<\/p>\n<p>EWSC provided technical support and expertise during the construction of the Mpolonjeni Water Project, and will also be responsible for the maintenance and repairs of the system after the project is completed. The community members will be paying reduced monthly tariffs to EWSC for their water supply. The partnership between the corporation and the community is aimed at ensuring sustainable water provision in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister stated that the model implemented in Mpolonjeni should be replicated in other communities across the country, to ensure that all citizens have access to clean and reliable water. He also reiterated Government\u2019s commitment to working with World Vision in other communities where the organisation operates, to improve the quality of life for the people of Eswatini.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
