DRAINAGE SYSTEMS ARE VITAL FOR ANY PLACE TO DEVELOP AND THRIVE. LETS BE PART OF THE SOLUTION.  Water may accumulate on the road like ponds. The accumulated water creates a risk of aquaplaning during  rain. It also contributes to deformation of roads and erosion thus making the road not usable.  Poor drainage also causes flooding during rainy season. This causes many people to lose their homes and valuables.  Thanks to a visionary Department of Transport and Infrastructure Mombasa County, our drainage systems are monitored, assessed and fixed constantly.  As residents, we must all take responsibility and be part of what Governor Abdulswamad Shariff Nassir is building- a great county with good Infrastructure. Let's desist dumping plastic materials and dirts into the drainage system. This will cause clogging and waste spillage thus affecting our health.  Let's commend and work with Dan Manyala who has been exceptional leader in the department to ha...
