Drought + Rain = Floods
admin October 29th, 2009
First there was the drought, then the rains, and then floods. That’s the real-life experience of people in Kenya as the pictures below show. Just a few weeks ago Kenya was in the grip of a serious drought as the rains due earlier in the year had largely failed and there were doubts over whether the October/November rains would come either.
When Advance Aid was in Nairobi at the end of September the grass almost everywhere was brown and the Masai were bringing their cattle into the centre of the city in search of grass verges that might have been watered that the painfully thin cattle could feed on.
