Thwake Dam will be complete by 2024, says CS Wahome
Cabinet Secretary for Water, Sanitation and Irrigation Alice Wahome today reiterated the national government's commitment to ensure completion of Thwake Multi-purpose dam construction by June 2024.
Construction works are at 77 percent comple, the CS said.
She spoke on Tuesday during a site inspection tour of the dam in the company of Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jr , County Commissioner Beverly Opwora, Makueni MP Suzanne Kiamba and County Assembly Speaker Douglas Mbilu.
Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jnr put up a request to the CS to have treatment works and pipeline laying works start as the dam filling goes on. This, he said, will ensure people can access clean water for domestic use as soon as the dam is complete. The CS pledged to address the request as water access is a key component of the dam.
