This is the current situation in parklands where developers have constructed above the river and diverted the river to the county drainage system, causing massive flooding on the road, As President Ruto promised to reclaim all riparian land very soon this problem will be a thing of the past .

You come out in the middle of the night to start blaming other people for your mess. Instead of coming out with the response team to solve the problem.

His development must have been approved and inspected during construction. So why not ensure drainage is sorted then. ?

@JerotichSeii has been speaking about this,what have you guys done? Instead you have let the developers bully them. Your team is incompetent and corrupt wait for many more complaints in future. Shame on you

😂😂😂 before the rains where were you? Who approved the plans? When do you start reclaiming the riparian land

This is just reactionary. Did it have to rain for the county govt to discover that ‘developers encroached and blocked’ drainage, bwana Katibu Mkuu? Prevention is better than cure.

This is the junction of 1st Parklands Avenue and Masari Road. All buildings on the left of the road from Mpaka Road to Limuru Road have been erected on the banks of a river. The road behind was washed away after the river reclaimed its course. The developers should finance the construction of the entire 1st Parklands Avenue to standard accommodating the developments, build a stronger canal, storm water drainage and pedestrian walkways.

Responding to complaints from residents in Parklands, where a developer routinely closes one side of the road with his cement truck, spilling wet concrete on the road causing damage and completely damaging the road drainage system, we took action by towing the truck to our yard and also we shall ensure compliance by requiring the developer to fix the drainage system.

Today, I visited 1st Avenue Parklands in response to persistent complaints from residents about flooding in the area, Some of the complaints we receive about flooding especially in Parklands stem from some developers who have built directly over the natural river course. By diverting the river into a narrow canal, they have significantly reduced its ability to handle excess rainwater, leading to massive overflows during heavy rains. I witnessed firsthand how rainwater has been flooding homes and spilling over onto roads, making them impassable. It is unfortunate that while some residents place full blame on the government, the root cause of the flooding lies in these constructions that have interfered with natural river flow. As the County Government, we are committed to implementing a permanent solution. This includes restoring natural waterways, improving drainage infrastructure, and taking firm action against non-compliant developments. We must balance urban development with environmental responsibility.

🇬🇭 This is the current situation at Odawna, where debris has blocked the flow of rainwater, worsening the impact of flooding in the area. The scene highlights how human activities, including improper waste disposal and blocked drainage systems, are contributing significantly to flooding challenges in the capital.

This situation seems to be improving. They are plugging the breach with sandbags right now. Flooding appears limited to the industrial park on the east side of the river. River is still running high, but things seem under control now. KOMO News

The rains have started, and we urge all motorists driving within Nairobi County to exercise extra caution. We are putting all hawkers on notice, especially those operating within the CBD and irresponsibly dumping waste particularly tea and coffee hawkers. Their careless disposal of garbage is blocking our stormwater drainage systems, which is a major cause of flooding in the city whenever it rains. Developers and all residents are reminded to strictly follow the law and avoid encroaching on drainage channels. All illegal structures constructed on top of or along drainage systems will be removed. We are committed to restoring order in Nairobi. We are also warning those who have encroached along riverbanks and riparian zones move away immediately before you are swept away by the floods. We shall move in and demolish all illegal structures along riparian areas. These zones are not meant for settlement or construction and must be protected. These decisions may not be popular, but they are necessary. Fixing our drainage system is not just about today it’s about building a better, safer city for tomorrow. One day, you will celebrate the work we are doing to make Nairobi cleaner, safer, and more resilient.

River Lampreys (Lampetra fluviatilis) at Annacotty Weir on the River Mulkear, Co. Limerick, this week. This barrier blocks lamprey migration in the lower reaches of this tributary of the River Shannon. These lampreys are on their upstream spawning migration but cannot get past this barrier. They repeatedly attempt to find a way over the obstacle on suitable nights, but there is no way upstream for them. This struggle continues for months, and eventually, the survivors spawn below the weir the following spring. However, this situation makes the population highly vulnerable, as they are confined to the lower 2 km of the river. The River Mulkear is designated as a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) for this species. It joins the River Shannon downstream of the hydroelectric scheme, which also blocks lamprey migration.

Heavy rains have flooded homes and roads in southern Lima, while river overflows, landslides, and road closures continue to affect Peru’s southern regions. In Lima, overwhelmed drainage systems have worsened the flooding as authorities warn that rains will intensify.

Arterial drainage maintenance works on the River Morningstar at Athlacca, Co. Limerick. These works were completed by the Office of Public Works (OPW) during the period November 2025 to January 2026. I visited the site last week when the machines had already left the site. However, I have been provided with photos showing the works underway. Significant areas of riparian woodland have been removed, and alluvial woodland was also cleared from islands within the river. There is evidence of substantial silt mobilisation and in-stream disturbance. The riverbanks have been destabilised as a result of the removal of trees and other vegetation. Although silt fences are now present, they did not prevent fine sediment and wet soil from entering the channel during the work. Machines tracked instream during the salmonid close season. This damage will affect the river for years to come, and a permanent loss of riparian woodland has occurred. The removal of woodland set back from the riverbank extends well beyond what would be considered to be river maintenance works. The River Morningstar is an important salmonid nursery and spawning tributary of the River Maigue. The lower reaches of the River Maigue form part of the Lower River Shannon Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and the River Shannon and River Fergus Estuaries Special Protection Area (SPA). Works like these are completed under the Arterial Drainage Act (1945). They are supposed to protect against flooding, but in reality, they have the opposite effect. By draining water off farmland too quickly, river works like this increase flood risk in downstream urban areas. This work was completed to protect wet farmland in a natural floodplain. We do need flood mitigation measures - but they need to be effective, sustainable, and based on evidence. In most cases that means slowing the flow of water through natural flood management techniques and restoring floodplains and wetlands to absorb excess water rather than pushing it downstream. We need to reform the Arterial Drainage Act (1945) and recognise the vital role that floodplains, alluvial woodlands and wetlands play in flood management and mitigation. Instead of fighting against nature, we should be working with it to ensure communities are truly protected in the long term. A healthy, functioning river catchment benefits everyone - not just wildlife, but the people who live alongside it too.
