Danger looms in block 10 Kiptunga sub-location mariashoni location has shown crack lines extending to a kilometre towards the River

Today, Regional Commander Mau /JEU Commander David Mutoro visited the area of Block 10 village to confirm an early report on the same.

During the visit, the following observations were made,

● More than 100 acres of forest land were affected by mudslides and a spring of water, which almost swept some homesteads away.

■Dangerous cracks were visible on the ground, posing more danger to the residents residing in the area 

This was a result of illegal encroachment of the forest land resulting in human activities, especially cultivation and illegal settlement along the riparian.

Due to the imminent danger being posed by the above activities, Regional Commander Mau recommended immediate relocation of the community living around the affected areas and also to stop any cultivation activities, especially in Nakuru County and other affected areas.
