    https://nation.africa/ Kodera forest in Homa Bay County is known for bad reasons. In the past, criminals would use it as a dumping ground for people killed elsewhere. However, the forest -- measuring more than 1,000 hectares -- is a key water catchment area that is prone to deforestation. Cutting of trees has seen River Awach, whose tributaries are from the forest, reduce in volume. This has affected people downstream in Karachuonyo where the river's waters are used to irrigate farms.
