Sanitation in Katoogo slum in Ggaba.

Well, we did this but, the most irritating thing was that, the sanitation of the area was really bad. finding people dwelling in places where animals can't bear living. Finding on a hot sunny day, flooded environment, is it just because it's on the shores of lake Victoria that people are like its normal this way? Well this goes back to my research, the people down there are not all willing but its because of their standards of living.
imagine finding a home that is really filled with water and people have vacated it leaving some of their belongings, maybe sometime they will come back for them.

Poor garbage disposal being another sanitation related problem, hopefully there being not efficient supervision of place by the city council to help these people out, on garbage collection just like in any other place of the city. The council just passes by the place thinking that there are no lives down there after all the place is not even identified on some maps.

Another thing is the "issue of future generation leaders" who never get chance to have their education in the best classrooms but also hopeful to gain heights,

the only possible hindrance being the state of their study facilities like you can see the classroom.

Then another problem is the poor maintained sewage channels that are not protected in that children can easily contact diseases from there.
