Nairobi, 3 Other Counties to Face Extended Water Rationing as Utility Company Issues Warning

Nairobi Water signals the possibility of water rationing in Nairobi and its environs, with the weatherman still maintaining an 80% chance of El Niño rains.

Nairobi Water has announced water rationing for Nairobi, Kiambu, Kajiado, and Machakos counties, warning residents to expect longer periods without regular piped water supplies.

According to a notice released by the utility on Monday, November 9, this follows declining water levels at the Thika/Ndakaini Dam due to below-average rainfall.

The company announced that water production at Ngethu and Kigoro Water Treatment Plants had been reduced by 35 per cent with immediate effect.“Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company Ltd (Nairobi Water) wishes to inform its valued customers and the general public that, due to declining water levels at Thika / Ndakaini Dam, water production at Ngethu and Kigoro Water Treatment Plants has been reduced by 35% with immediate effect,” Nairobi Water stated.
