We'd like to warn you that this episode tackles themes that you might find distressing. It contains franks discussions of allegations of sexual assault and rape.

We know water is important and we are taking you to Kenya and the informal settlement of Kibera, in the capital Nairobi where access to clean water is a daily struggle for the hundreds of thousands of people who live there. Many here are casual workers whose daily wages can barely stretch to cover the most basic needs and some spend as much as a quarter of their wages on water each month, so they can have enough to drink, prepare their meal, and take the occasional shower.

Much of the water in Kibera is delivered by private vendors, and often have men in charge. Some women have told the BBC they feel vulnerable because of attacks and assaults they’ve faced from these men. Today Victoria Uwonkunda is joined by the BBC's Women's Affairs Correspondent, Azeezat Olaoluwa, to talk about the price some women are having to pay for water in a Kenyan slum Presenter: Victoria Uwonkunda - @Msuwonkunda Guest: Azeezat Olaoluwa - @AzeezatOlaoluwa
