Is there a story unfolding in your community? Let Hivisasa know

Nakuru residents are lamenting the pollution of rivers in the county.

River Ndarugu, which drains into Lake Nakuru, is the worst hit.

Plastic bottles among other waste have found their way into the river clogging it.

Lake Nakuru has also faced the brunt of pollution.

After a chopper crashed into the waters, divers had a difficult time retrieving victims and remains as the lake is too polluted.

Raw sewage and plastic materials among other dirt is drained into the lake making it difficult to manouvre through.

Residents now want the National Environment Management Authority to swing into action as protect water bodies in the county.
