More than 160 families in Kiamunyi estate, Olive Inn and Kaptembwa in Nakuru West Sub County have been displaced by the ongoing rainfall in Nakuru.
Nakuru town West area MP Samuel Arama, and the area Deputy County Commissioner Elmi Shaffie with KENHA officials visited the area to assess the situation where pit latrines have shown signs of sinking.
Last year a similar incident happened in the same area but little was done to contain the situation.
This even as the weatherman says that the rains will continue in different parts of the country this month.
Kwa Rhonda estate in Kaptembwa, Nakuru West, which has for a long time reported destruction of property when it floods, was once again greatly affected.
Residents linked the reoccurring floods to clogged drainage systems and poor waste management.
Early last month, the Nakuru County government said it had earmarked Sh345 million to mitigate the effects of flooding in Nakuru and Naivasha towns.
This came after the Meteorological Department advised residents to brace themselves for heavy rains.
According to the County Roads and Infrastructure Executive Lucy Kariuki, Sh137 million will be used to improve the drainage system in Nakuru town to prevent flooding.
The drainage system has been given priority in areas such as the central business district, Kwa Murogi and Kipkelion.
At least Sh200 million was allocated to roads and drainage in Naivasha town.
Industrial Area, Site and Service and Kabati had also been scheduled to benefit.
Salgaa trading centre has been allocated Sh4m to improve the drainage system along a one-kilometre stretch.
Mosop has also been allocated a similar amount.
