More than 4,000 families in Naivasha have been displaced due to the escalating water levels of Lake Naivasha, leading to widespread flooding of surrounding areas and raising serious environmental and health concerns. The rising waters are causing massive pollution, threatening fish stocks, and increasing fears of waterborne diseases in affected communities like Kihoto, Karagita Landing Beach, and North Lake.

• Over 4,000 families have been displaced and forced to relocate to higher ground.
• Dan Karanja Nyoro, Chairperson of the Lake Naivasha Basin Landscape Association (LANABLA), described the situation as a "ticking time bomb" due to raw sewage and agricultural runoff flowing into the lake.
• The Deputy County Commissioner, Josiah Odongo, noted that residents have defied past relocation orders despite government warnings about dangers of living on riparian land.
