"Brahim Amadaye Omar, the General Secretary of the National Union of Drivers of Mandoul, Chad. Since the 110 km of road between Mondou and Sahr was improved, Brahim only takes two and a half hours to get from Koumra to Sahr, instead of eight. Today, he spends quality time with his children and he earns more money, providing them with a good education. Ahmat Ali Abdoulaye, the Team Manager for the Koumra Weighing Station. His life was transformed with the Koumra-Sahr Road Development Project, funded by the African Development Bank, because his job was created because of the project. Before he was unemployed but now he has a job that allows him to have a better quality of life. Bricasse Larme Vincent, the Provincial Delegate of Mandoul Infrastructures. He acknowledges that the project, supported by the African Development Bank, has significantly increased mobility, liberating all the villages that were on the periphery and to develop commerce and agriculture. He did the follow-up of the Koumra-Sahr Development Project and he has witnessed the village of Koumra grow and develop, as well as the improvement of the quality of life for the people of Mandoul and Moyen-Chari. Ndigueroim Dorcas is the president of Organisation of Women's Development Group in Chad. She transforms products like karite into karite butter, soap, oil, among others, to sell at the local market. She is always worried about guaranteeing her children a good life, a bright future. The rehabilitation of the 205 km rural roads, funded by the African Development Bank, were a relief for her because now she can easily take the children to school or to the hospital when they are sick."
