Emmanuel Nyamirama is a veterinarian from the Kamonyi district in Rwanda. He bought his WakaWaka at the Bonanza event and plans to use it at home, to charge the family phones, for the bright light and for his work. He makes a lot of house calls and is called to the farms where the sick cows are, including at night. At home Emmanuel has no electricity, so he used to use candles for light at night, and every day they he had to travel long distances and pay money to charge the family phones in shops with electricity. “I bought this [WakaWaka] instead of electricity because electricity requires more installation and it is very expensive; this unit is less expensive and easier to install and set up than electricity”
