People in the Kenyan village of Kamuchiri recount the experience of the deluge which hit their local area overnight after a dam nearby broke, killing dozens. Kamuchiri village lies close to the town of Mai Mahiu, just north of Kenya's capital Nairobi. "I’m 85 years old, and I’ve never seen anything like this," says Peter Murithi Mwangi, whose house was flooded. Meanwhile workers use construction vehicles to try to clear some of the vast swathes of mud carried along after the dam broke.
