What to Know About Wayu

Key Facts

Wayu is a location within the Galole constituency of Tana River County, Kenya. Situated in the southeastern part of Kenya, Wayu lies within the broader Tana River region, which is characterized by its proximity to the Tana River, Kenya's longest river. This area is part of the semi-arid eastern lowlands of Kenya, with a landscape that transitions between riverine ecosystems along the Tana and drier savannah grasslands further inland. While specific population data for Wayu itself is limited, the broader Galole constituency had an estimated population of around 30,000-40,000 people according to recent census projections, primarily comprising communities such as the Pokomo and Orma peoples who have historically inhabited the Tana River basin. The area is administratively organized as part of Tana River County's ward system, with Wayu representing one of the smaller administrative units within this structure. Economically, the region relies significantly on agriculture, particularly along the riverbanks where flood-retreat farming is practiced, as well as livestock keeping in the drier areas. The Tana River provides crucial water resources for both human consumption and agricultural activities, making settlements like Wayu vital hubs within this river-dependent ecosystem.
