Floods wreck havoc for schools in Siaya
Learning in flood prone regions in Nyanza and Western could be disrupted during the reopening of schools on Monday after several families affected by the heavy rains sought refuge in classrooms.
In Kisumu County, affected families from Nyando Sub-County who relocated to schools in their neighbourhood said they were yet to find alternative shelter after their homes were submerged in water a week ago.
An evacuation facility with a capacity for 400 people was set up in a school at Ombaka location. The affected families are currently camping at Ombaka primary school. Ms Elizabeth Awuor, who is camping at Ombaka Primary school with her family members, said her house was destroyed by the raging waters while her compound is still submerged.
