Around 2020 the village was told by the authorities that a much needed maternity unit would be built there on condition that they would make the mud bricks needed. This they duly did and building work started about a year later. The basic structure was built in 2023 but then the money ran out and it could not be completed. FUM was unable to help until the following year and the unit was completed in autumn 2024, supervised by Mr Luck Mgeni.
