Since Kasese District was again hit by yet another disastrous flood exactly one year and a week after the recent floods of 1st May 2013 This flood occurred at 10.00am of 8th May 2014 and had the same characteristics of bursting the river banks, at exactly the same weak points as in the 1st May 2013 flood. The first river to burst its banks was river Nyamwamba flooding into Bulembya Primary School, Kilembe Mines offices, Kyanjuki-Katiri newly constructed tarmac road, Kanyaruboga area and finally Kilembe Mines Hospital was equally affected right from the hind face in the area of the already destroyed nurses' quarters. The floods were so intense that patients and medical workers had to run for their dear lives. However water didn't make considerable damage to Hospital facilities.The Nyamwamba floods were followed by spontaneous flush flood floods caused by rivers Nyamugasani in Kyarumba, Kyondo and Kisinga. As if that was not enough, other rivers including river Mubuku in Maliba, Bugoye and Karusandara Sub-counties have been reported to have also burst their banks.
