Kenyan residents in various parts of the country are counting heavy losses as heavy floods continue to destroy their properties.
On Wednesday last week, the Kenyan government sounded an alarm following the spilling of water from Masinga Dam. The dam, the largest water reservoir for power production in the country, has surpassed its capacity of 1056.5 cubic meters.
