Water is at a premium in Kenya, where four million people are facing starvation as severe drought brings life to a standstill. The government has declared an emergency in four counties, including Tana River on the south coast, but locals there have seen government aid dry up as well.
“We had this government program called Offtake that was being carried out here, but that too has vanished. People are not getting help,” says Jared Twalib, youth representative of Wayuboro village, an isolated hamlet.
