City residents wait for rains to end water shortage.
The situation has been made worse by the Nairobi Water and Sewerage Company employees’ strike, now in its second week.
Services have been paralysed and normal water rationing seriously affected.
Water vendors have taken advantage of the situation to make a kill.
For seven months, Nairobi Water has been rationing supply, after levels at Ndakaini dam in Murang’a County dropped to less than 30 per cent.
“There is water stress in the city because rains have failed.
There is nothing we can do other than pray,” Mr Kimori told the Nation.
Mr Kimori blamed the defunct City Council of Nairobi for not investing in water infrastructure.
Workers’ union officials face the committee today to provide information on the “sale”.
On Wednesday, Nairobi Water chief executive Philip Gichuki will appear before the panel while the board will be quizzed on Thursday.
