The government has come up with a task force to help come up with the reasons for low water levels at Ndakaini Dam which is the largest source of water for Nairobi despite persistent heavy rains.
Principal Secretary for Water Joseph Irungu says the team will be required to go through all issues surrounding the management of the dam that has been the center of concern for months now.
This comes after worries that the levels of dam remained drastically low, despite the heavy rainfall being experienced in the country.
The team will have representatives from the water Ministry, Nairobi and Muranga Counties, Athi Water and Sewerage Company, Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company among other stakeholders.
Engineer Samuel Halima will be in charge of the probe, set to be done in two months. The water levels at Ndakaini are currently at 33.5 million cubic meters of water at 48.5 percent whilst the dam has a capacity of 70 million cubic meters.
