Clear the air about plans to sell water firm; save city more agony

In terms of service provision, the Nairobi County government is nowhere near the top of the league. A lot of things do not work; many sewer lines are clogged or burst and garbage collection is wanting; worst of all is the persistent shortage of water in many of the city's estates. And notably, the problem afflicts middle and lower income housing estates. The leafy suburban's rarely experience the shortage, if ever. City residents have had to endure water rationing since the start of the year, and there is no respite in sight.
