Friends,
We hosted the best and the biggest ever World Environment Day Clean-up Campaign in the World yesterday.
The Provincial Director of Environment Nairobi Mr. Titus Simiyu flagging off the World Environment Day Clean-up at Muthurwa Market along Landhies Road yesterday the 5th June 2012 to mark The World Environment Day. He is flanked by Mr. Gabriel Omondi- an Assistant Director of Environment at The City Council of Nairobi.
History was in the making at Muthurwa along Landhies Road, at Makadara along Jogoo Road and at the Donholm Round About when Kenyans cleared waste that has been dumped on us by irresponsible people.
The statement was very clear; we must stop dumping waste on us.
In partnership with the Provincial Environment Office Nairobi, the City Council of Nairobi, the Provincial Administration in Nairobi and several other partners, we were able to clear all the garbage at Muthurwa along Landhies Road, at Makadara DC at the Fly-over and at the Donholm Round About.

The Landhies onslaught on garbage was led by Mr. Titus Simiyu- the Provincial Director of Environment in Nairobi and in attendance was Mr. Gabriel Omondi- an Assistant Director of Environment at the City Council of Nairobi, the Gor Mahia Foot Ball players led by the Captain Jerry. Team Manager Tom Ogweno and Vice Chairman David Kilo were also present.
Gor Mahia Team Captain Jerry and the Vice Chairman Gor Mahia Mr. David Kilo led the Kogalo Team into action. Arther Achola of TCKC is doing his thing infront as well.
The Olympic Champion Douglas Wakiihuri was the first to arrive at exactly 7.00am, and he came running.
Then we had a strong contingent from the Athletics Kenya led by Coach George Kariuki, Warm-up John Mwithiga, Chairlady Mary Chege and others. We must appreciate all those who joined us and in particular, we want to appreciate the following Teams for their strong participation;
The attending Journalists did not dissapoint. The Team from Radio Waumini- Monicah and colleague and Radio Umoja Mr. Were Isaiah put pen and paper down for a stab at the Rakes
The Makadara Team was led by the Makadara DC Mr. SM Chege and their cleared all the garbage dumped by the Makadara Maringo Foot Bridge as they worked towards the City Stadium.
The last team from Donholm Round-About was led by Mr. Nyagah- the Divisional Environment Officer at the City Hall and they did a marvelous job.
Athletics Kenya was not left behind. Warm-up John Mwithiga introduces the AK Team. he is flanked by Odhiambo T Oketch and Coach George Kariuki
To make all this happen, we had a strong team of close to 6,000 people in attendance.
As we consolidate these gains, we are happy to announce that Waste will Not Manage our affairs in Nairobi and across the Country.
At the Exhibition; Mr. Arthur Achola, Odhiambo T Oketch, Mr. SM Chege DC Makadara, Mr. Ndirangu Njoroge- PC Nairobi and Mr. Titus Simiyu- the PDE Nairobi

This is a deliberate effort that will target the Hospitality Industry, the Markets and a few Residential Areas starting with Kibera.
And he crowned it all; The PC Nairobi Mr. Ndirangu Njoroge
