The Karimenu II Dam water supply project in Gatundu North, Kiambu County, serving parts of Nairobi, has received a Ksh. 200 million watershed restoration boost. This initiative, spearheaded by climate change stakeholders, aims to improve water security despite ongoing compensation disputes with displaced residents.

• Over Ksh. 200 million has been allocated for the watershed restoration effort.
• Key organizations involved include The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Athi Water Works, and Coca-Cola.
• Residents displaced by the dam, such as Mr. Simon Nguyai Timothy, are still awaiting compensation, though CEO Engineer Joseph Kamau states the process is ongoing with delays for buffer zone residents.
