The rains have been poor during the traditional rainy season, and this, according to Abu Shouk, poses a threat to public life.

Abu Shouk told Radio Dabanga that the rural areas most affected by water shortages are El Sareif Beni Hussein, El Waha, El Malha, El Kuma, and Um Baru localities He said that daily availability of water per capita in rural areas is less than 18 litres, while it is 36 litres in the cities.
