Nairobi water rationing to go on
Posted Friday, March 5 2010 at 21:38
Water rationing is expected to continue despite levels at Ndakaini Dam being at an all- time high.
Nairobi Water Company spokesman Mbaruku Vyakweli, however, said the city would receive more water supplies.
The water rationing will continue as the water levels in the dam are still not enough to sustain normal water supply in the city, Mr Vyakweli said.
The larger part of Nairobi, which uses 525,000 cubic metres a day, receives water from Ndakaini Dam while the rest gets from Sasumua Dam.

This is very sad to hear,elnino came and went, pple are still dying from floods, yet our so called leaders cnt do anything to collect this water. Rationing! damn, am so ashamed to be a kenyan! They cant even improvise what God gives them freely, or they are probably waiting for God to come and do it for them!

To succeed with vision 2030, we have to get the basics right, water, eletricity, education, infrastructure etc. Until those basics are taken care of, vision 2030 will remain on square one!

Why? Because of stupid long term planning everywhere! Why not create drainages to collect water from rains, floods etc rather than it destroying roads and creating pot-holes or simple penetrating underground??? This should be a National long term strategy!

I agree, lets get our basics straight first! If we can't even provide basic needs for our citizens, those in govt need to be ashamed to their core!!
