Troubled Italian firm CMC Di Ravena has moved to Kerio Valley to start work on the Arror and Kimwarer dam projects amid DCI investigation of possible loss of funds. Kimosop said the projects were going on as planned and claims of graft in tendering and implementation were untrue. The resettlement will be done through a land to land compensation but the families will be paid for the developments on the land. Elgeyo Marakwet Governor Alex Tolgos told the more than 1,000 families in Kerio Valley to take back their land until further notice. The two dams are expected to supply water for irrigation in Kerio Valley.
