He spoke to the press in Voi town after inspecting the projects in Kasigau and Sagala wards in Voi Sub County. Lack of water has affected the green house projects and schools are not performing well in national examination," he said. The chairman of the Coast Water Services (CWSB) Granton Samboja however said frequent water shortages would only be a thing of the past if the county government constructs huge water tanks. The population in Voi town and its environs and business has grown hence the need for huge water supply," he said.
