Stick to water schedule

Water rationing has kicked off in major estates in the city as announced by the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company. This is as a result of a drop in the capacity of water at Ndakaini dam, the main reservoir serving Nairobi.

According to the company's management, the exercise is expected to continue until the start of long rains in March. The company has released a programme of the estates to be affected and on which days. But water shortage is not new to Nairobi residents and many have been forced to rely on water vendors.
