Through the efforts of the Embu County government, 50,000 residents now have access to treated water. This is after the Embu Water and Sanitation Company (Ewasco) - a fully county government-owned entity, completed the installation of a Sh112 million pipeline in a project commissioned by Governor Martin Wambora recently.
The 29-kilometre Kiamuringa-Muchonoke and Don Bosco-Meka water pipeline project, which began in July 2014, will now make it easier for those who want piped water from the Nthawa, Muminji, Mavuria and Kiambere wards to get it.
