    "content": "we were able to harvest that water and keep it for a rainy day, Kenya would become a country which has enough water to even last several years. Sometime back, I heard about an aquifer somewhere in Turkana. It was said that that water can sustain this country even for the next 70 years. Since then, what have we done about that aquifer which was discovered yet we know that Turkana is one of the water-scarce areas? Coming closer home, where I come from in Kirinyaga County, we have many rivers but up to date, half of the county does not have clean drinking water many years after Independence. We have too many rivers but with time, we have seen them shrink and the water volume dwindling. We have also not conserved our forests properly. The ravages of the weather and lack of proper forest cover has led to water becoming scarcer than what was there before. If we go on like that, we will find that with time, even areas where we think there is a lot of water will become water-scarce like some other parts of this great country."
