MANGOCHI-(MaraviPost)-The spirit of community service continues to shine where Mangochi Police Spokesperson Amina Tepani Daudi and her family have once again touched lives through their annual clean water initiative.
In 2024, the Daudi family carried out a borehole project in Mangochi as part of their ongoing efforts to support communities facing water shortages.
The family remains focused on easing the daily struggle for clean and safe drinking water in areas where water challenges are still a major burden.
This year, in 2025, the family extended their generosity to Namakango Village under Traditional Authority (TA) Mponda, where residents are now celebrating access to clean and safe water for the first time in many years.
The new borehole has brought immediate relief to households that previously walked long distances just to find water.
Speaking to Maravi Post, Daudi said the main purpose of the program is simple yet powerful, to provide safe water to communities that have none.
She explained that her family believes service goes beyond law enforcement.
According to the family, community development is a duty built on love, unity and faith.
This year’s initiative has cost the family K4.3 million, covering drilling, installation and the full setup of the borehole.
The funds were raised through the family’s WhatsApp group, Akumitole Clan, where each member contributes to humanitarian causes.
Daudi emphasized that unity within the family is what keeps the projects progressing each year.
When asked why the family continues to conduct this project annually, she noted that water scarcity still affects many households including women and children.
Daudi also shared that each borehole stands as a Sadaqa Jaria (a continuous charity) in honour of their late mother.
She referenced the teachings of Prophet Muhammad, which state that anyone who digs a well receives ongoing blessings from every living being that drinks from it.
Looking ahead, Daudi said the family’s mission is far from complete.
Through newly established Kusyeto Trust, the family also is supporting students with school fees.
The trust, created in memory of their late grandmother, Mrs. Zahara Kaunde, currently supports university, secondary and primary school learners across the country and aims to reach even more in the future.
Daudi encouraged community members to embrace unity and love as the foundation of development.
She stressed that collaboration between the police and the public is essential for building a peaceful and caring society.
“As police officers, we are here not just to enforce the law but also to uplift the communities we serve,” she said.
