Furthermore, the pipes and joints are corroded and/or broken, leading to leakages INTO the water system -- including sewage getting into the water system (yes, you've understood me correctly). Other matter that can get into the water flowing through pipes include sand and soil, chemicals, soil-resident germs like anthrax. In some places, when it rains heavily, water backs up into houses via the taps (kitchen, bathroom, you hear it bubbling).

24 years of misrule!
