This follows the increase in water level at Ndakaini dam to 42 per cent from 27 per cent. Acting managing director Nahashon Muguna said the volume of water in Ndakaini had been 18.9 million cubic metres or 27 per cent full. Ndakaini supplies 84 per cent of the water used in the city and has a capacity of 70 million cubic metres. High costs have been blamed on cartels that supply water. He said water problems would be permanently resolved with the completion of the Northern Water Tunnel from Muranga and two other dams under construction.
