The ongoing heavy rains in the country have continued to cause damages to many businesses across the country.

The latest to be affected is The Lord Erroll restaurant, located in Runda Estate, Nairobi.

The management said through a statement on Monday that its doors will remain closed until further notice "due to unavoidable circumstances".

Pictures showed the restaurant's interior and the roads leading to it flooded and virtually impassable.

Its corridors were filled with water as the tables and chairs of the once impeccable award-winning restaurant filled with dirty water. 

The ongoing rains have also rendered a number of roads in Nairobi impassable due to floods.

While issuing a statement last week on the state of the heavy rains across the county, government spokesperson Cyrus Oguna said that the Kenya National Highways Authority had dispatched its personnel to access the state of the roads countrywide.

Oguna added that 132 people had been killed by floods since the onset of the heavy rains.

The weather forecast from the meteorological department indicates that the rains are expected to continue for the better part of December.
