Some Kenya leaders got a dose of their medicine when residents of a village in Kenya served them dirty water to protest unavailability of clean water.

The move was made to protest a decision by county officials to prioritize formation of a municipality board instead of giving them access to clean water.

Senator Godana Hargura, Speaker Matthew Loltome, Karare South MCA Asunta Galgotelli among officials from the executive had gone to Karare Ward to listen to views on the formation of a municipal board.

But a section of Karare Ward women took their local leaders aback when they fought their way to the high table with bottles full of muddied water and served the political and administrative leaders who were in attendance, AllAfrica reports.

They then demanded that the county stop discussion on municipal boards and instead give them water.

The residents wanted piped water and registration of their lands.
