Gbderedou Baranama, Guinea, 2nd May 2015; This village and local area will be flooded by the dam. Blacksmith Namory Camara, 80, 2 wives, 12 children, was born in the village. “This house belonged to my father. The girl with shampoo on her hair is his granddaughter Dalo. He has taught all his children to be blacksmiths. "We’ve heard about the dam and we’re happy that it’s going to be build but we’re not happy about being displaced from this village. We don’t yet know where we’ll be displaced to, and we don’t yet know if it will be better or worse than here."
