MURANGA, KENYA: A protracted dispute over water tariffs between the county government and a service provider seems set to continue.

Consumers have borne the brunt of the feud between the county government and the Murang'a Water and Sanitation Company (Muwasco), which goes back to 2013, when Mwangi wa Iria was elected governor.
