A family of eight including seven children and their father were left homeless after heavy rains destroyed their home in Ebumwende village, Mumias East.
Strong winds blew off the roof of their house and the rain destroyed the walls.

Josemack Makokha Mmbango, the owner of the home, said that he was outside his house with his two-year-old son when the strong winds that preceded the heavy rains blew off the roof of the house where his six children were.

He said his two year old sustained minor head injuries, while the rest were unhurt.

Makokha’s daughter, Everlyne, said, “We have nowhere to stay now. We appeal for help to find an alternative place to stay.”
