This is a challenging issue due to heavy investment needed to replace and rehabilitate old pipelines and water meter.To achieve the minimum percentage of water loss around 20% will take quite a long time to realise. However what I want to emphasize is that most Financial Institution ( Banque Africain de Development ) are not willing to interfere in water network replacement because the water tariff is low and disappropriate in regards to recover the huge investment made. As it is a political and social problem to fix the correct Water Tariff no Authorities is willing to bring the water tariff to its actual cost, therefore it hinders the progress of Non Revenue water to realise according to my own experience and research done on this project.
