The National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) Chief Executive Officer Nganga Letoole has called on Kenyans to develop habits of reporting crucial information to government agencies on time in order to avert tragedies and disasters.
Speaking in Solai on Monday when he joined a team from Nakuru County Woman Rep Liza Chelule’s office to deliver donations to the affected families, Letoole was categorical that if the locals had reported about the poor state of the dam on time, then the tragedy could have been averted.
“It is the responsibility of all of us to report on matters as they appear. I am told that this dam had shown some signs that all was not well but the information was not reported to the authority on time,” he said.
The NGAAF CEO who also works under the Ministry of Public Service, Youth and Gender Affairs assured that the Ministry has continued to support the families affected by the tragedy in Solai.
“As a Ministry we are on the ground and set up various desks among them Huduma Centre to help the families who lost their documents,” he said.
