The Kenya Meteorological Department has warned that six regions in the country are at risk of experiencing floods and landslides following enhanced rainfall expected this month.
In its monthly weather forecast, the weatherman stated that the Highlands East of the Rift Valley, Nairobi County, the Lake Victoria Basin, the South Rift, the Southeastern Lowlands, and the low-lying areas of northern Kenya are likely to experience flash and riverine floods, especially in poorly drained areas.
Additionally, the Highlands East and West of the Rift Valley are at a higher risk of experiencing landslides.
Kenya Met has urged the public to exercise vigilance and refrain from walking, driving, or cycling near moving waters to avert risks.
