A well for the infirmary in Klologo
In
the
first
year
of
its
existence,
Kekeli
Togo
e.V.
was
able
to
build
the
first
two
deep
bore
wells
in
Klologo
through
private
donations
a
n
d
c
r
o
w
d
f
u
n

,
thus
providing
clean
drinking
water.
Now
we
would
like
to
further
expand
the
drinking
water
supply
-
with
a
deep
bore
well
at
the
health
station.
At
the
moment,
water
is
drawn
from
a mechanical well, which of course is heavily contaminated.
The
total
cost
of
the
project
is
EUR
10
000.
It
is
a
well
with
a
solar
pump;
the
construction
supervision
will
again
be
with
Messan
Amegniho,
as
with
the
first
two
projects.
He
works
for
AGERTO,
a
recognised
German-Togolese
NGO.
A
local
company
will
again
be
contracted,
which
will
also
provide
maintenance
for
the
new
well.
Amegniho
enjoys
our
full
confidence;
he
also
has
the
support
of
the
village
chief
and
the
management
team
of
the
village
development
association.
The
cooperation
between
the
association
and
the
local
leaders
will
again
be
characterised
by
mutual
respect
and
trust,
as
was
the
case
with
the
first
well
drillings,
the
granting
of
small
loans
and
the
expansion of the kindergarten.
The
target
group
for
this
project
is
primarily
the
staff
and
patients
of
the
health
station;
however,
the
well
will
be
equipped
with
a
pipe
system
like
the others, so that the fresh water will also benefit many other people.
It
is
our
great
hope
that
we
will
soon
be
able
to
announce
to
the
people
of
Klologo
the
much
longed
for
third
well
-
at
the
infirmary,
a
place
that
is
even
more important than usual, especially now in Corona times.
Hygiene
in
Corona
times
-
who
doesn't
think
of
clean
water
for
washing
hands? This will soon become a reality for nurses and their patients.
Drinking water - deep bore wells for every
district of Klologo
"Water
for
Klologo"
-
under
this
motto
we
started
in
summer
2019.
In
the
meantime
-
as
of
summer
2020
-
two
wells
with
a
total
of
nine
water
points
are
available
to
the
residents
of
Klologo.
The
deep
bore
wells
are
equipped
with
solar
submersible
pumps.
In
line
with
our
concept
that
development
is
not
possible
without
locally
involved
actors,
the
village
population
took
over
a
large
part
of
the
excavation
work
for
the
drilling
site
and
pipelines.
More
wells
are
planned
-
the
priority
now
is
the
health
station! - so that all parts of the village can enjoy clean water.
The
fountains
were
inaugurated
on
16
January
2020
-
a
proud
day
for
Kekeli Togo!

Messan
Amegniho
from
AGERTO
was
the
project
leader;
he
was
supported
by
L'Honorable
Togbui
Messan
Robert
Gati
IV,
the
village
headman,
as
well
as
by
Seraphin
Bocco
from
CIDK
(Comité
Intervillageois
pour
le
développement
de
Klologo),
with
whom
Kekeli
e.V.
has
established
a
partnership relationship.
An
experienced
local
drilling
company
was
commissioned
and
AGERTO
took
over
part
of
the
construction
and
installation
work.
The
CIDK
and
the
team
of
the
drilling
company
ensure
the
participation
of
the
villagers
in
the
construction
and
maintenance
of
the
wells
and
regulate
the
financial
contribution
to
maintenance
and
repairs.
In
this
way,
the
project
is
set
up
for the future.
The
mechanical
draw
well,
as
you
can
see
the
water
here
is
heavily
polluted.
