Floods have rendered hundreds of families homeless and crippled transport in parts of western Kenya. In the last three days, several homes in Nyatike, Migori, Nyando, Usenge and Got Agulu in Siaya have been submerged.

Farmers are counting huge losses after the heavy downpour destroyed crops and farms in Nyatike and Got Agulu.
