Bricella Hernández, an oncology patient from Santiago de Cuba, reported this Saturday on social media the inefficiency of those responsible for public services in that city.
Hernández, who has undergone 25 surgeries, a cystostomy, and suffers from urinary incontinence, as well as multiple conditions, expressed his frustration on Facebook over the lack of response from those in charge of water supply.
"How long are we going to have managers who do not perform their duties correctly? I have been waiting for a water truck for over a week, and until today, nothing," declared the woman from Santiago.
He stated that he has tried to contact the person in charge, his colleague Joel, numerous times, but has not received any response to his calls or messages.
"I hope this message reaches this executive who does not deserve this position. I only hope my message gets through: we need leaders who respond to the needs of the people," he added.
The activist, who carries out humanitarian work in Santiago de Cuba by collecting and delivering aid to people with limited financial resources, emphasized that her paperwork is in order with the aqueduct and that her case is well known by the authorities, who seem to be toying with her situation.
"Joel does not deserve the position if he does not respond to the people and, to make matters worse, he turns off his phone. How long will this last?" he questioned.
According to Hernández, his request has been handled by several officials of the aqueduct and the delegate, and he has plenty of evidence, as well as multiple calls and messages that support his case.
Hernández's complaint highlights the desperation and suffering of those who rely on essential services and who, due to the inefficiency of the management, see their quality of life and health compromised.
Recently, one of the two pipelines that connects the reservoirs of the northwest system with the Quintero water treatment plant in the city of Santiago de Cuba suffered a break, leaving 80 percent of the city without water supply service.
In May, residents of the Los Pinos neighborhood in Santiago de Cuba reported more than 20 days without drinking water service, highlighting the ongoing crisis that the regime has yet to resolve.
This crisis with the water supply pushed people to extreme solutions, such as collecting the precious liquid directly from a street leak, compromising its quality and safety, putting lives at risk.
