      There are plans, on paper already, to do alot of these kinds of dams all around the country. We are only limited by the budget, to execute all of them at one go.

    Quite hard to notice the Dam itself clearly as the drone camera hardly captured the same. Recommends use of ARROWS/POINTERS, CIRCLES on the point of interest in future videos (eg 1st , 2nd layers etc as described by the engineer)

      I agree with you about the environmental impacts that we might not even fully understand now, actually some countries are knocking down dams built decades ago. But we have a bigger threats than the immediate area flora and fauna, Global Warming.
      Kenya needs to make more electricity so that it's cheaper, so that we as a nation stop using charcoal and trees as firewood, or using imported oil to produce electricity. Those are the worst for environment than any dam Kenya builds can ever be.
