The raging waters that killed 46 people and left dozens others injured in Maai Mahiu came from a water-filled gulley in Kiambu that flowed down to Naivasha Sub-County, not from a dam, the Water Resources Management Authority (Warma) has said.
The Business Daily has established that the waters originated from a gulley near a railway line that was blocked, thus forming a temporary water catchment over time. With the onset of the heavy rains, the gulley burst, leading to water collected flowing to lower-lying areas and leaving behind a trail of death and destruction.
