DAR ES SALAAM, April 16 -- At least three people were killed and over 150 houses were submerged by flash floods caused by ongoing heavy rain in Tanzania's southern highlands, a senior official said on Friday. Albert Chalamila, the Mbeya regional commissioner, appealed to residents in affected wards in Kyela district to move from lower ground to higher ground as the rain continued to hit the district. Chalamila said most of the affected people had constructed their houses along a stream of water passing through Mwaya, Tenende, Luloje and Mbaka wards. Chalamila said the government will not be responsible for the victims because they were told many years back that the area was unsuitable for settlement. "The government will not provide relief supplies to the victims because they were told that they should not construct houses along the stream of water," said the official. Xinhua
