Manyini Health Centre yet to be operationalised since completion in 2015

It is a matter of choice for people living in big cities to choose whether to visit a private or public facility when they are sick because there are lots of health centers, but people in rural communities do not have this luxury.

Several communities that are in dire need of health services for common diseases such as malaria and diarrhoea will have to travel several kilometers on foot to seek health care. 

Meanwhile, the few communities that do have health centers are unable to access health care because the facilities are yet to be operationalised.

This is the sad story of the people of Manyini who despite having had a health facility built in their community in 2015, the facility is yet to open.

The facility still under lock and key was built to serve Manyini and eight other farming communities in the Mion District of the Northern Region.  

For this reason, sick people especially pregnant women would have to travel over 10 kilometers across two streams to Naundo when they need health care.

These challenges have forced many to resort to self-medication while others have lost their lives.
