Vihiga County is proposing to impose hefty penalties of up to Sh20,000 on water vandals and illegal connections in a move aimed at averting disruption of supply.

Contained in the Vihiga County Finance Bill, 2022, it is coming at a time residents are eagerly waiting to be reconnected to piped water that was destroyed in the early 1990s.
