A boil advisory remains in effect in Jackson, Mississippi, as people complain of brown water coming from their faucets.

The water crisis in Jackson has stretched over weeks. Residents were left with low or no water pressure after water treatment plants failed during a flooding event in August.

Jackson's mayor says the water pressure issues have been fixed, but it will be days before the boil advisory can be lifted.

Mayor Chokwe Lumumba said on "Face the Nation" that he's been in discussions with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris about getting more funding to make sure the issue is fixed and doesn't happen again.

"It will take a coordinated effort on not only the local, state, but federal levels as well," Lumumba said.

Jackson is home to about 150,000 residents. Many of them have been forced to wait in distribution lines to access packaged water that's been given out by the city and organizations.

JACKSON, Miss. —

Make-A-Wish Mississippi grants wishes all the time, however, in 35 years they’ve never seen one quite like this.

"When he so easily gives to others at a time where everybody should really be supporting him, you just have to say, that’s a remarkable young man," said Linda Sermons, Make-A-Wish Mississippi assistant.

That remarkable young man is Abraham Olagbegi and of all the wishes in the world, he chose to feed the homeless at Poindexter Park in Jackson, Mississippi.

"My mom always says it’s a blessing to be a blessing so I just wanted to do something for other people to make it last long," Olagebgi said.

Abraham was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called PNH in 2020. After a bone marrow transplant and chemotherapy, he received the chance of a lifetime for one wish and wanted to make it count.

"Yeah, just to be here, because a couple months ago I was just in the hospital but now I’m here," Olagebgi said. "It’s been a long journey and I thank God he kept me through it all."

The wish extends beyond just one day. Thanks to local partners they will be in the park every third Saturday for the next year.
