Mwache Dam construction in Kinango, Kwale county, is expected to start soon following the completion of rehabilitation works for the project, Coast Development Authority MD Mohamed Keinan has said. Most construction works should have started by December, the managing director said. “We are through with the first stage and we are yet to embark on the actual work,” Keinan said. The dam is expected to harness floodwater from River Mwache in Fulugani and hold 118 million cubic meters of water enough to address the perennial shortage in the region. “The infrastructure investments are crucial to extending water and sanitation services to more people across the coastal counties,” Keinan said.
