He is right. When water is treated and diverted for free, those in need don't get it. Example: We had treated Kilimanjaro water from Nolturesh Company Kajiado. Maasai politics diverted the expensively treated water to irrigation, Nolturesh collapsed and we have no water now

Why are folks cooking CS Eric Migaa?
What is wrong if he says we are losing a lot of money due to upscaled non-revenue water?

We have been singing the El Niño song for a while but sadly people think that it is just a theory. Whether you believe it’s engineered or natural, the effects don't care. So instead of planning, you ignored it.

Corporates that haven't developed an AI policy need to. AI generated ToRs are quite different than AI-assisted ToRs.

Nairobi Water relies on mostly colonial water sources, with last dam done in 1995 during Moi.
