Citizen collectives of Mayotte announced on Wednesday the maintenance for "a few more days" of the dams. This is despite the written commitments of Gérald Darmanin to act against insecurity and uncontrolled immigration on the island.

In addition to massive immigration, the other important subject in Mayotte concerns the water crisis in homes. Due to unprecedented drought and the dilapidation of the network, the taps regularly run dry. “I shower with a saucepan, I have a large 140 liter trash can and I shower with the water that I have stored in my trash can... I do with what I have,” says one woman.
