Residents of Katima Mulilo Rural's Muyako village are pleading with the government to build a clinic that was promised years ago.

Residents now receive all medical services in what was meant to be housing for nurses.

What was once the village clinic is now an abandoned building after services were moved into the house.

The two nurses at the clinic share the remaining two bedrooms in a two-bedroom house while they wait for a third nurse to join them.
