 The village is located on a highland therefore, there is only one river which divides the village into 2 areas, Manyengerano (deserters) and Matongo (deserted homes) The Manyengerano left their homes to relocate close to their fields hence they referred to their deserted homes as Matongo.The absence of perennial sources of water left the village to rely mainly on boreholes as a source of water for both people and animals especially during the dry season.The vast nature conservative areas are fast dwindling, this land is communally owned but due to the corrupt headmen, majority of it is sold to "home seekers".
