Samson Dimo, a resident of Nyangera village assessing the damage caused by marauding hippos in his farm.

Residents of Nyangera and Kanyibok villages in West Yimbo location, Bondo sub-county, are counting losses after hippos raided their farms and destroyed crops.

“The ongoing rains came as a relief, however, with the emergence of the hippos, a bumper harvest cannot be achieved,” said George Aremo, a resident of Nyangera village.
