The water shortage in East Africa would affect all the aspects of people’s lives. In the video, Habiba Boru used to have money, but then lost it due to political conflicts with the fighting. So that is just one example of how economic, political, and social aspects of people’s lives are contingent on this water shortage. Most of the people in the village are pastoralists, and they depend on having livestock. If the livestock don’t have any pastures to eat and are dying, then the people go hungry, the economy goes down because of the lack of food and then that impacts the government.
