Locals of Bamba area in Ganze subcounty are staring at the worst drought in recent years after water pans and wells dried up.

The residents say that the situation has been complicated by the influx of pastoralists from Tana River County with cattle and wild animals from the Tsavo East national park's Dida forest.
