"I was at my casual work. My kids called me and told me it had rained so much that water had entered the house. I thought they were joking, but they were adamant it was true. I boarded a motorcycle and rushed home, where I arrived at 8pm.
When I arrived home, what I saw from the gate broke my heart. I was crying primarily for the birth certificates. I am a single mum, providing everything for my kids singlehandedly. I feed them and pay their school fees," she cried.
The mother of five from Nakuru West said when she looked at her daughter's books, they were drenched in water.
The mattress was drenched in water, and the bed was in separate parts, which added to her stress.
"We have no peace. We have nowhere to go. We did not save anything. We just watched everything in disarray hopelessly. We slept at a neighbour's place," she added.
Moraa asked the government to aid them and help them get a better place to stay following the floods.
