Residents of Lowarengak in, Turkana North Sub County can now access clean and safe water after the County government repaired stalled boreholes at Engomo and Mlango areas.
According to Arot Jessica, chairperson of the community water association, the water shortage had severely affected traders, households, and fishermen who rely on the water for livelihoods.
James Ingollan, a resident, expressed relief at the restoration of borehole services, highlighting the impact on daily life. "The struggle of fetching water from the lake, where we risked crocodile attacks in Lake Turkana, is finally over.
We are grateful that the county has responded," he said.
