Schools get ecological toilets
RULINDO – Residents of Cyinzuzi Sector in Rulindo district have been called upon to maintain a clean environment in their homesteads to avoid outbreak of waterborne diseases. The call was made on Thursday by an official in the Ministry of Education, Emmanuel Kaviziya, at a function to launch ecological toilets, showers and rain water harvesting systems at Karambo B and Cyinzuzi primary schools. “The government considers cleanliness as one of its top priorities to guarantee health to all Rwandans,” he said. The project was funded by Water for People, an NGO, in partnership with Rwanda environment care and Rulindo district.
