National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale alongside Devolution Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa and Garissa Governor Ali Korane on Friday assessed the damage and humanitarian crisis following the heavy rains pounding Garissa and flooding from Tana River which has caused destruction of properties and displaced people to other parts of the town.
The national government in collaboration with county government, Kenya Red Cross and UN agencies have heightened support to the displaced families.
Duale who is Garissa Township MP, said the flooding is as a result of KenGen hydro dams releasing excess water downstream causing death and destruction to farms and properties including schools.
"We shall take legal action against KenGen and sue it over Ksh 5 billion for damages," he warned.
