| Abstract | This report was generated from a study into the cost of water and sanitation services received by the inhabitants in Jillo Yipalla in the East Gonja District of the Northern region of Ghana. Jillo Yipalla community with a population of 498 has three formal water point systems but the community members are receiving limited water service. The community relies mostly on the informal water sources for all purposes including drinking. The community has no public or institutional latrines and no one in the community has a household toilet. All community members do not receive basic sanitation service. [authors abstract] |
