The area chief says rescue efforts to retrieve the body of the woman who died in the floods are ongoing.
So far, eleven people have lost their lives in Migori County.
Locals appeal to the government to erect a bridge across the river with more than five hundred families displaced in Nyatike constituency Migori County.
Elsewhere, the Garsen-Witu-Lamu road remains closed due to floods in the region.
The closure resulted from the Tana River overflowing after the heavy rains in the region led to the breakage of banks, submerging a section of the road.
