Gabagaba road in poor condition

Badly deteriorated road in the center of Gabagaba village

We paid a visit to a village down the Magi Highway to prepare for an upcoming workshop. As with many services throughout the country, the deterioration in services to many rural communities has completely put a strain on many lives. The drive towards Gabagaba village from the junction which would take normally 10 minutes on a good conditioned road took nearly 20 to half an hour. This is a very common scenario in all sectors including health, education and the list goes on and on. We boast about record budget handed down year after year but nothing is to show forth in terms of basic services. The mechanism in service delivery (public services) has surely collapse or is hanging by a margin. (Pictured above is a big crater in the middle of the village)
