Hello, i am doing and environmental science project and i have a few questions that are becoming difficult for me to find.

1) How much money does the average Tanzanian citizen make a day?
2) how much more does/did water cost the average citizen now?
3) How much profit are the water companies making?

If someone could answer these questions it would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks!
