Council chairman Gilbert Kabage said as leaders in the area where the dam was built, they should be involved in the case.

“The matter directly touches us and our views should be heard,” he said.

He said the council has instructed its lawyer to move to court to be enjoined in the petition filed by Kipsigis, Abagusii, Luo and Ogiek elders.

The water project is being built in Kuresoi North, Nakuru County.
