Aside from cholera, Wajir County is currently battling an outbreak of anthrax and a biting drought that has resulted in the deaths of livestock.
Wajir Deputy Governor says the county has pumped money into relief food, cash transfers, massive water trucking, a revolving fund, and school feeding programs to mitigate the mounting problems.
