Wanaina is a community in the Mabaruma area of Region 1, Barima-Waini. Its name also appears as Wainaina in official publications.
A shared water-supply connection
Official reporting in 2020 discussed improvements to the reservoir and pumping arrangements serving Wanaina and Wauna. A later account of Wauna’s new well in 2023 again identified the Wanaina reservoir as an existing source for that community.
These reports help distinguish the two places while showing their practical connection. Wanaina should not be merged with Wauna simply because the names resemble one another.
