The government plans to disburse cash to victims of the recent El Niño floods in eight counties by expanding a programme that currently gives money only to victims of drought in the devolved units of government.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has revealed the government, with support from the World Bank, plans to distribute cash to households that were affected by the El Niño rains in eight arid counties of Turkana, Wajir, Mandera, Marsabit, Garissa, Tana River, Isiolo and Samburu.
