Residents suffer as floods wreak havoc in Syokimau

Residents of Syokimau estate in Machakos County have petitioned the county government to demolish structures built on riparian land to deal with the challenge of perennial flooding in the area. For three days Syokimau and Katani residents are stuck in their houses as roads remain impassable due to poor drainage blamed on rogue developers who are constructing buildings along River Sabaki. Citizen TV crew visited the area for the second day and established that the drainage system is yet to be sorted despite the weatherman warning of floods this week

[@ltspossible]

Get your facts ,that's Machakos County not Nairobi.
Nairobi is the same story.
Nothing the two governors are doing..
The 360 apartments should blame the developer that's a gated community with rogue developer.

Complaints about drainage have been going on for years. We will be back here again next year only worse. Nothing will change because buildings will keep going up where they are not supposed to due to corruption.
