Ce travail de recherche est un résumé des glissements de terrain récurrents hautement cataclysmiques de l’escarpement de Lagam dans la localité de Kaben du comté d’Elgeyo-Marakwet, au Kenya. Ils ont causé le chaos dans la communauté de la région depuis le El-Nino de 1961, lorsqu’une importante tempête de pluie a frappé la région (Kiptungu). Les glissements de terrain de la localité de Kaben ont dénudé la rivière Embosumer et laissé d’énormes rochers éparpillés sur de nombreuses terres agricoles le 12 avril 2010, où 14 personnes ont perdu la vie, d’autres ont été gravement blessées et de nombreux biens ont été détruits. Dix ans plus tard, le dimanche 19 avril 2020, dans l’après-midi, des pluies diluviennes se sont abattues sur la région, provoquant des coulées de boue massives qui ont touché de nombreux cours d’eau et ont fait 26 victimes, sans compter la destruction simultanée de maisons, d’écoles et de terres agricoles. Ainsi, ce travail tente de recommander des mesures d’atténuation et des actions positives de sauvetage à mettre en œuvre par les résidents de la zone et toutes les parties concernées.
