This comes after several areas have experienced heavy rains leading to flooding. Nairobi, Kiambu, Machakos and Budalangi are among the areas greatly affected by the floods.
To help affected families, Ruto convened a multi-agency team and ordered immediate intervention. He ordered the relevant ministries to coordinate evacuation plans and distribute food and non-food aid to the affected individuals.
“Unfortunately, we will have to move some of the [flood victims] without their consent because otherwise, they are putting themselves in danger,” he said.
The President said the National Youth Service had been instructed to set aside land to resettle those affected.
