"Patel" blames the weather, nature........eti the heavy rain in ndundori forest carried boulders and trees stumps that were swept into the dam and broke the wall. He says dam was > 20yrs and other dams on the farm are 60yr old. He has been farming there for 70yrs.

Link?

Its not KPLC (they just distribute power) but Kengen.

Several have died over the years, you'd know were it not for selective amnesia

For something to happen someone needs to do some leg work. One way of doing this is to follow the legal channels but it takes a lot of work. If there are real lawyers who care about justice this would be a perfect case.

Collect all media coverage of the events both print and digital.. I would even go further and collect all raw footage that never made it on air.

Send a few people to Solai to interview all people affected. Relatives who lost loved ones, people injured and in hospital, people who lost properties. Well written sworn affidavits.

Start collecting local information on everything about that dam. Contractors, engineers, interview everybody who ever worked on that dam or on the farm.

Go to any government office and all information from everyone who ever made any communication with the owners about the dam. There is talk that the owner was advised to legalise the dams but he ignored. All these correspondence from any government agency must be collected. All reports by the local people either to police or to whatever authority that made any reports should be collected.

When you have all this information you need to retreat for a very long time as you build your case. Wait until things have cooled down for even one year. When you have all your facts and a mountain of evidence look for Judge Odunga and start suing: you will be suing Patel and all government agencies involved.

The details may not be exactly as outlined above but the point is you can never make a case effectively without evidence. Kenyans are the laziest people when it comes to gathering evidence because it is a lot of work. If you do your homework and put in the hours there are judges in Kenya now who will be willing to hear you.

Wrong. Start with the county GAVA, then NEMA and Next is WARMA, and finally County GAVA. Our systems are just wreckers and casual, the society is skeptic and not willing to be watch dogs for simple reasons as nepotism and Kukulia. A day when we care for ourselves first and then our neighbour is replaced with we ought to care and are responsible altitude, none of that will ever happen without a genuine cause.
Pointing an accusing finger on the designer, contractor and operator.
Designer-never cared to buffer up end edges of the earth dam. Never issued a do not operate warning before back face is stable and protected. Thirdly, that soil is not compacted and unbending.
Contractor. Never protected the walls. Allowed operation before setting and stabilization. Everything looks so recently and freshly made.
Owner. Too greedy. Was just eager to collect every drop of the on going rains. Ref, Devil on the Cross, harness every drop of oxygen and meter to the dying souls and be rich ever after. Without prejudice.

This has nothing to do with dam water. This is natural rains killing.
Post a link where a KenGen dam ever broke banks and killed people?

Those are built with all safety measures in place lakini Patel ni nani?
