Gibe III dam project on Ethiopia’s Omo River

It is feared that if the project proceeds, there would be a radical reduction of inflow of water into Lake Turkana, since the Omo River provides 90 per cent of the total input of the lake.

Like now a lot of livestock has died because of the drought,” said Mr Ole Ondugo.
