Relatives of victims of the Friday night deadly landslides in West Pokot were unable to get government emergency rescue nearly 12 hours after the tragedy, with some resorting to digging out their loved ones with bare hands.
Residents of the three villages of Nyarkulian, Parua, and Muino who bore the brunt of mudslides triggered by heavy rains also said they were yet to receive basic amenities since roads were yet to be opened up to ease transportation of food and warm clothes.
