In a renewed crackdown on irregular water connections, the government is now targeting informal settlements and carwash businesses, which are notorious for the vice.

This follows a raid on the morning of Wednesday by a team from the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company (NCWSC) who carried out a targeted operation in the Dagoretti area.

From the operation, the officials discovered three carwash businesses that were operating their trade through illegal water connections.

The businesses were operating along Muhuri and Kikuyu Roads.
