He confirmed that six died and fourteen others were hospitalised at Yauri General Hospital on Sunday evening.

The commissioner, however, was not sure whether those who died were as a result of cholera, vomiting or diarrhoea.

According to him, six out of those admitted were discharged on Monday.
Comrade Yauri, however, said the government took adequate measures by blocking the upcoming flow of contaminated water into the river.

He also disclosed that overhead tanks were provided for the community to have good drinking water and drugs for those victims receiving medical attention at the hospital.

The commissioner warned residents to stop using water which flows from far distance without boiling it.
