“The County Government has put in measures to ensure residents access clean and safe water across Kakamega County; the Ministry of Water, Environment, Natural Resources and Climate Change is soon coming up with a proposal to place rural water schemes under one company to enhance seamless management and efficiency in water service delivery and as we are all aware, the Governor H.E Hon.
