Makueni, Kenya: The sight of donkeys in Wote, the headquarters of Makueni County is synonymous with search for water. The beasts of burden are all over the place, weighed down by 20 litre jerricans of water scooped from the sand at Kaiti River.
Piped water trickles from pipes that run from Muuoni boreholes not far from the town of 100,000, but it is little and reserved for drinking. The problem is replicated all over the county with the exception of Kibwezi and the hilly Mbooni and kilome sub-counties.
