NAIROBI, Kenya — Kenya has postponed the reopening of its schools by one week due to ongoing flooding caused by heavy rains, as flood-related deaths since mid-March in the East African country neared 100.
Heavy rains have been pounding the country since mid-March and the Meteorology Department has warned of more rainfall. The highest number of deaths in Kenya have been reported in the capital, Nairobi, according to police records. The airport's manager, Henry Kegoye, said the flooding was from ongoing refurbishment work that was due to be completed in June. Heavy rains had overwhelmed a temporary drainage system set up by the contractor.
