Two people have been rescued after their vehicle was swept by flood waters while crossing a flooded culver section of Sekenani-Narok road near the Esupetai area.

According to a police report, members of the public retrieved the pair from the vehicle which was submerged on Wednesday afternoon.

Narok South Deputy County Commissioner and the Disaster Committee team arrived at the scene where they coordinated the rescue exercise.
