Over 300 households in Komothai, Githunguri Sub-County, Kiambu, now enjoy reliable access to clean water after more than a decade of persistent water scarcity.

The Komothai Community Water Project, launched under Governor Kimani Wamatangi's Maji Nyumbani Initiative, has brought transformation through the restoration of a previously dormant borehole and replacement of a 10,000-litre storage tank.

The initiative is part of a broader county effort to improve water security amid climate challenges and increasing demand.

For years, the Komothai community relied on unsafe or distant water sources, with residents walking long distances in search of water for domestic use.
