Nsuta is a town in sekyere central district at ashanti region in ghana. Nsuta is the capital of town of sekyere central district. The town does not have pipe born water and depend on near by town called ashanti mampong for pipe born water. The flow of water from the pipe at times stop for about weeks or months without flowing, leaving people to walk far away in search of water. People in this town always struggle for water. During Harmattan the water in the borehole dry up. The borehole is near to a river a stream water. In the town itself you have dig about 60- 100m before before you can get water. Imaging drawing water from 100m borehole. Even with that it will during the harmattan.
