In pictures: The water discovery that could meet Kenya's needs for at least 70 years

The tribes people in north west Kenya have sung rain prayers for generations and their calls may finally have been answered thanks to the discovery of a huge water reserve.

ITV News captured the moment water was struck in Kenya.

Five acquifers have been found in all, the biggest of which could supply all of Kenya's water needs for the next 70 years at least, and much longer if managed properly.

The aquifer was found 300 metres below the ground in Northern Kenya.
