According to her, There is a lot of water that South Africa is now going to get from its caring neighbours – Lesotho. That we would really like to thank and appreciate them for this gesture, especially for allowing us to drill water from their mountains.
This project will generate hydro electric power for Lesotho. While both countries will benefit substantially from this collaboration.
