The eastern region of the country is the worst affected by natural disasters according to a recent report
Over twelve families in Busano and Bungoko sub-counties in Mbale district are homeless following landslides that destroyed their homes, crops, and animals.
The LC 3 Chairperson of Busano sub-county Jonathan Wandeka Wambwa says that the landslide occurred on Saturday afternoon following heavy rains that pounded the area for over five hours.
According to Wambwa, the victims are now living in Bunyango Community Primary School and Bunyango trading center without food and beddings adding that several stones are at risk of rolling because the soils are now weak and cannot hold.
