Friends,
We are all set up for the Massive Clean-up Campaign across Kenya tomorrow.
We are inviting all to kindly join in cleaning their immediate neighbourhoods even as we converge at Kongowea Wholesale Market as our Focal Point for February. A Clean, Green and Litter Less Kenya is one agenda that we want to achieve as we celebrate our 50 Years of Independence.
We have missed on fighting poverty, disease, illiteracy, adequate shelter for all, water for all and all that. But a Clean, Green and Litter Less Kenya at 50 we can achieve as a People united in this Journey of Hope across Kenya.
We are happy with all the teams that have written to us enjoining in the Clean-up Campaign across Kenya, and as for the Kongowea Wholesale Market Clean-up Campaign, we want to appreciate the following Teams for joining in;

1. The Municipal Council of Mombasa
2. the Kongowea Wholesale Market Leaders and Traders
3. the First Step Initiative
4. the Coast Women in Development
5. the Humanist Resource Network

In our last posting we did say that NO ONE will be paid across Kenya to participate. This is a voluntary affair and only those who feel compelled are invited. Again we did say, and I want to repeat, the much talked about 20 Youths from Changamwe who wanted to get paid for their participation are not welcome.
They are free to join in the Clean-up Campaign, but they will NOT be paid for participating.
We are very happy with the many Kenyans who have since joined in the Clean-up Campaigns across Kenya in a voluntary basis. And like we have been saying, let us roll our sleeves and move to the trenches. A Clean Kenya Starts with Me!
We are also happy that at KCDN, we are driving a Campaign that is soon catching fire across the whole country. We are happy that at least we are doing something. We are just not talking and doing nothing. And we are are happy that we have been blessed with the capacity to sensitize and mobilize Kenyans into action. We are investing a great deal in this and we are happy Kenyans are responding with action.
We are looking forward to more groups joining us at Kongowea as from 10am tomorrow.
Note; this is a voluntary service and NO ONE will be paid for participating.
'Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change we seek'- President Barack Obama of the USA.
A Clean, Green and Litter Less Kenya at 50 is possible and achievable.
