TULA TULA RESIDENTS PROTEST OVER PERSISTENT WATER SHORTAGE

Residents of Tula Tula in Wajir West/Eldas Sub-County staged a protest on Thursday, decrying years of neglect and a worsening water crisis. Demonstrators carried empty Jerrycans and chanted “No water, no life,” signaling the severity of the situation.

Protesters’ placards highlighted their frustration, with messages including: “Our taps are actors only, they perform during campaigns,” “We wash hands with dreams,” “Tula Tula is not in Kenya?” and “Please send water, not condolences.”

The community says the only borehole in the area, managed by a national agency, is non-functional, forcing residents—particularly women, children, and the elderly—to walk long distances in search of water. Efforts last year by WAJWASCO to take over the management of local water wells were abruptly halted, leaving responsibility unclear between county and national authorities.

The residents are calling on both governments to urgently provide clean water and implement a sustainable solution. “Water is not a luxury; it is a basic human right,” a community leader said.
