Kirandich Dam in Baringo County, once a vital water source and scenic spot, has been transformed into a neglected drinking and immoral activity den. Recent events highlight the severe lack of security and the growing danger of water contamination.

• A recent party at the dam resulted in the drowning of a 39-year-old man and widespread pollution with alcohol bottles and used condoms.
• Local leaders and residents are demanding urgent action from authorities to secure and clean up the dam.
• The dam, built three decades ago by an Italian firm, is essential for supplying water to thousands of residents in Kabarnet town and surrounding areas.
