Over 6000 students are set to miss school in Naivasha after their families were displaced by the rising waters of Lake Naivasha. There are fears that the numbers could rise in the coming days as the levels continue to rise flooding more homes, schools, government institutions and farms. Nakuru Senator Tabitha Karanja on a visit to the besieged estate raised concerns over the repeated flooding that has left thousands of learners with no learning institutions. Karanja said the floods had affected over 6,000 learners while calling for urgent action from the ministry of education officials. The Senator termed the perennial flooding as a wakeup call to the government to speed up compensation for land owners and relocate tens of affected families urgently before a health disaster.
