The Kenyan government has ordered all sub-counties to establish immediate flood emergency response centres to manage the escalating impact of ongoing heavy rains and floods across the country.

• Public Service CS Geoffrey Ruku directed the creation of these centres, emphasizing the need for prompt information on affected households.
• Every sub-county is mandated to set up a public information desk and emergency response centre with rapid response stations in every division.
• Kenyans are urged to exercise caution on roads and avoid crossing swollen rivers, especially in counties like Nairobi City County, which has experienced significant flooding.
