President William Ruto has asked Kenyans living in flood-prone areas to move to safe grounds to avoid further loss of lives.

The President said the mapping that has been done in areas that are prone to landslides and flooding reveals that some Kenyans are still in danger.

He said a multi-agency team, comprising all security agencies including the military, has been mobilised to facilitate the evacuation of Kenyans living in such high-risk areas.

“We are asking every Kenyan in such areas to leave because the forecast is that rain will continue and the likelihood of flooding and loss of lives is real. Therefore, we must take pre-emptive action,” he said.

The President made the remarks at Ngeya Girls Secondary School in Mai Mahiu, Nakuru County, when he visited victims of floods.

He later inspected search and rescue operations in the area.
