Rebuilding the Zunguluka Guard Post
In January 2015, the Zunguluka guard post was attacked and burned by Maimai militia. In a show of solidarity following the attack, after security had been reestablished in the area, OCP workers and carpenters rebuilt the 6 guard housing blocks that were damaged. After removing large, cumbersome sections of burned roofs, damaged doors and shattered windows, the workers installed new roofs and replaced everything that was damaged. With all new facades the housing complex offered a glimpse of renewal after a devastating attack on the community. In an effort to demonstrate and promote sustainability and clean energy inside the Reserve, solar power is now being installed in each unit. The guards have already begun moving in with their families and the complex will be fully occupied by the end of the month. To read more click here.
