Butembo: Students Demand Enhanced Sanitary Measures Before School Resumes

Three days before the school year begins, students in Butembo express concerns about the Ebola epidemic. Kambale Malyabwana, coordinator of the student committee, calls for enhanced sanitary measures, particularly to improve the unsanitary conditions of toilets and access to water. Overcrowded classrooms and a lack of sanitary devices are also major concerns. No official response from school authorities has been received so far.
