Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>THE Tsumeb Municipality have urged residents to continue boiling water before consumption.<\/p>\n

Town spokesperson Stella Imalwa-Nangolo said the inhabitants are encouraged to ensure that they boil their water until test results on the quality of water are available.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are busy conducting our own tests on the quality of the town\u2019s water,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

This urge comes after Dundee Precious Metals issued a warning that the town\u2019s water is unfair for human consumption.<\/p>\n

Tsumeb water is supplied from one of the town\u2019s reservoirs, this is originally sourced from the municipal boreholes.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, a test was carried out by Dundee Precious Metals on the quality of the drinking water onsite, where high microbiological traces were found.<\/p>\n

This situation has also resulted in many inhabitants having to spend their little savings to buy mineral water every day.<\/p>\n

The residents now requested the town\u2019s leadership to speed up the testing process in order for them to go back to normal.<\/p>\n
