A ravaging drought has hit Mandera County following failure of long and short rains for more than a year.
Governor Ali Roba said the border county only received 20 per cent of April-May and October-December long and short rains respectively last year.
“The low and erratic rainfalls are increasing in frequency and severity and resulted in a depressed pasture, acute water scarcity and food shortage,” Roba said.
The governor who is the chairman of Frontier Counties Development Council said the county’s situation was worsened by locusts’ invasion which wiped out pasture in most parts.
