The man was reportedly swept away by flood water following heavy downpour on Thursday evening.

“We have complained a lot about the issue of drainage but nothing has been done. If the drainage was working, the man would not have been swept away," a resident said.

Speaking over phone, Nakuru East Deputy County Commissioner Omar Hajji Salat called on residents to be cautious during this rain season.

He called on parents and teachers to ensure that children are safe during the rainy periods.
