In that regard, I wish to report to the House that my Office has received a Petition from Mr. Zachary Kamau Githiki, Mr. Robert Waititu Ndirangu and Ms. Lydia Wanjiru Ndungu, who are representatives of Kihoto Homeowners Self- Help Group in Kihoto Estate, bordering Lake Naivasha, Nakuru County. The petitioners claim that following the rising water levels of Lake Naivasha and the resultant raging floods of early 2020, over 500 homeowners have been displaced from their homes. The water levels of the lake are still rising despite the abatement of rain-induced floods, a situation that the Water Resources Authority has attributed to tectonic activities and effects of climate change. The petitioners aver that the flooding has also affected wildlife habitat that has made wildlife such as hippopotamuses and buffaloes among others to stray from their habitats to the fields and homes within Kihoto Estate, causing destruction of crops, property and livelihoods, fear, anxiety and psycho-social related ailments among the residents of the said estate and surrounding The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
