The Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA) has warned hundreds of residents of the Nyonjoro area in Lanet, Nakuru County, over alleged encroachment on riparian land.

This comes days after the roads agency was put on the spot after the residents accused it of directing storm water to their homes, causing floods that destroyed livestock and crops and caused hundreds to flee the area.
