Over 50 families in Kamitha area, Kawangware, Dagoretti North Constituency, are stranded after raw sewage flooded their homes for the past four days due to short rains and a blocked main drainage outlet. Residents are desperate for assistance as the situation poses a severe public health risk.

• More than 50 families are affected.
• The crisis is attributed to a local landowner who allegedly blocked the main drainage and converted land into a dumping site, despite complaints to NEMA and the Nairobi County Government.
• Residents fear diseases like cholera and typhoid for their children due to contaminated water. They are appealing to Gatina Ward MCA Hon. Swaka and Dagoretti North MP Hon. Beatrice Elachi for a lasting solution.
