Toilets have broken down, and over 5 homes were washed away and 15 rooms filled with water and the occupants have nowhere to sleep. 4 toilets have sunk away in the ground after the heavy rains. 2 of our group have severe diarrhoea and still no help and people have no food to eat because the rain destroyed the stock of food that was kept so we call for emergency help.” ...
