Hizo mvua zilisemekana zita come March zikidinda kutakua noma bin ngori, kutafika mahali kama ile 1984 story ya imported yellow maize.

The calamitous drought in the Horn of Arica looks certain to persist with a sixth consecutive failed rainy season, a regional climate monitoring body has warned, [COLOR=rgb(247, 218, 100)]fearing worse conditions than a decade ago when some 260,000 people died in Somalia alone.

Forecasts for the 2023 March-May rainy season point “towards depressed rainfall and high temperatures,” the Intergovernmental Authority on Development Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC) said on Wednesday.

The crucial March to May season typically contributes up to 60 percent of the annual total rainfall in the equatorial parts of the Greater Horn of Africa.

Kama sasa kunakuanga na cargo ships packed full of maize waiting like vultures kwa high sea’s off the coast of east Africa waiting for orders by connected individuals who get tenders to import maize

2021 it rained through out the Yr. So wacha urongo.

There will be rain at the usual time but it will be dismal.

Nabii na nabiiress hunikalia washamba Kama shenzi @uwesmake na mama clichy the hippopotamus

The earth is heating up faster than scientists expected; which means NO rain. Ruto also made the wrong gamble by subsidizing fertilizer, instead of giving people food to eat.

If the long rains fail kutakuwa kunoma. Hope the predictions are wrong…

Kumbafu wewe !!! Kwani ni mimi nimesema ?

Horn of Africa ni Zomalia na zingine. Kwani map ili change lini? Bure kabisa Ngombe ici

Countries stoped depending on rong rains kitaambo.
Yet their economies and the people are healthier than ours.
We need to stop repeating things and expecting different results. We have been insane for far too long.

Ni kubaya

Apa umedinya point mbaya

Farmers should embrace irrigation waache kudepend on rains

Sixth failed consecutive rainy season is 3rd year not 6 years mjinga! 2 rainy seasons per year

Just out of curiosity sir, what have you personally done to alleviate the situation?

Offering such expert advice.

No, this will not do.

One thing I have always decried/fought is this tendency of Kenyans saying this and that should be done. By who?

People should stop thinking it’s somebody else’s responsibility and go out there and do what they think should be done…

If only jubilee government built the dams it had promised, especially the Arror and Kimwarer ones, then those parts of Northern Kenya would have been better.

Apart from offering advice to the gaffement,
nimepanda miti kadhaa.
