I have a 1/4 acre plot about 800 metres from Thika road, just behind Zetech University Ruiru. Surprisingly it has a spring that never dries out regardless of the time of the year. Right now as the drought bites, water is still flowing.
My query is, Is sinking a borehole a noble idea or a well might as well be sufficient.

Are you sure there is no kanjo pipe that burst in your plot? Otherwise that plot should be repossessed and used for public good (just like the forest s).

Sufficient for what? Do you want to supplement the County Government water for domestic use? Sell water? do farming?

It could turn out to be sewer filtered waste water from development projects around your plot.[/quo
