Friends,
We had very fruitful engagements with Inuka Kenya and Kenya University Students Organization this morning at our offices.
Ms Grace Mukunzi and Ms Beth Njuguna from Inuka Kenya were joined by Mr. Gabriel Odhiambo from the Kenya University Students Organization for a brainstorming session at our offices in Hurlingham. Kituo Cha Sheria and PeaceNet sent their apologies. The Clean Kenya Campaign was represented by Mr. Otieno Sungu and myself.

We are crafting a strong partnership that will drive the question of how we manage our Waste as we seek Peace amongst Kenyans and explore the virtues of Good Governance.
Later in the day, we paid a Courtesy Call on Mr. Daniel Aghan- the Executive Secretary of Media for Environment, Science, Health and Agriculture- MESHA, at his offices. MESHA is hosting a Breakfast Meeting with some Journalists on the 27th Nov 2012 in Nairobi
This Breakfast Meeting is supported and organized by Water Capacity Building Network (WaterCap), Media for Environment, Science, Health and Agriculture (MESHA) and Water Resources Management Authority(WRMA) and is a follow-up on the ‘Media Training on Water and Environmental Reporting’ that was held for journalists in September at the Emboita Hotel in Nakuru.
Sungu, Mr. Aghan and Oto this afternoon
The Clean Kenya Campaign has been invited to this Meeting and we are happy that the Networks we are working with, have the capacity and the potential to create Environmental Management as an alternative Platform other than the daily dose of politics we are fed on as our Country Rots away.
There are several engagements that will be on-going between now and 1st January 2013, and all are geared towards Kenyan Celebrating our 50 Years of Independence as a Clean Country. Then come January 2013, we have a loaded programme across Kenya.
We are heading for a General Election on the 4th of March 2013, and as a Peace Loving People, we must Preach Peace, Campaign Peacefully and Elect persons with proven qualities as our next lot of leaders. And as we celebrate our 50 Years of Independence, we must look back into those 50 years and HONESTLY identify what we have achieved as a Country. We have several half baked projects that are good but they have not achieved much.
Managing this does not need rocket science. It only needs leadership, and leadership abounds in our Communities.
We still have places in Nairobi with no running water.
Electricity is a rare and expensive commodity in Kenya.
Our roads are as dilapidated as those in hell, though we have attempts that have improved some County Roads to super highways.
Our Education Standards are in shambles.
Medicine is unavailable in our Hospitals.
Housing is a crisis in Kenya, and the list goes on.
Yet, our politicians talk like parrots that have been set free from captivity. They operate as if they have just come from Mars. And they operate as if they do not see the massive failures we have around us. We must hence HONESTLY interrogate the last 50 Years and make informed choices as we elect our next cadre of political leaders.
We must also document all the scandals that we have presided over as a Country and look at the cost implication. We will then juxtapose this with the level of development that we have seen around us. If we like it, we will crown it by electing back to office the people who have made Kenya look like a failed State.
We want to be a Clean Country in many aspects and this is our Transformative Agenda for our Country. We must work for a Clean Physical Environment, Clean Social Environment, Clean Economic Environment, Clean Academic Environment and even Clean Political Environment.
This calls for Massive Civic Education on Good Governance, and the Alternative Platform that we are creating will unite Kenyans against Greed, Tribalism, Impunity, Nepotism and make us cherish virtues that unite us as One People under God in this Journey of Hope across Kenya.
A Clean Kenya is our Dream and we must all work for it in our own ways.
Now, look at this Petition and if you are agreeable to its content, sign and help disseminate the same far and wide;
Let us Move From Talking to Tasking as we Stay with the Issues garbage.
