Forty-two people have been confirmed dead after heavy flash floods wiped out several homes in Kamuchiri Village Mai Mahiu, Nakuru County following heavy rains.
20 bodies had earlier been retrieved on Monday morning.

The floodwaters originated from a nearby river that broke its banks in the wee hours of Monday morning, according to Naivasha Member of Parliament (MP) Jane Kihara.

She further urged residents residing in flood-risk areas to relocate to higher ground.

“It’s something we have not seen. The road is gone, the one going to Narok has caved in also,” she said.

Confirming the incident earlier on Monday morning, Naivasha police commander Stephen Kirui noted that several survivors have been rushed to Naivasha Sub-County Hospital for treatment.

Reports indicate that over 100 people were rescued and treated at Mai Mahiu health center with 32 cases referred to Naivasha sub-county hospital.

Teams from the Kenya Police, County Disaster team, Kenya Red Cross and community members are at the scene.
