Friends,
It has been a very hectic 5 days for me. And I must appreciate that it has ended on a good note.
I have arrived in Nairobi as it is raining, and I am also pleasantly informed that my Team rained on another at City Stadium this afternoon. Congrats.
Now, I have just arrived back to Nairobi from Western Kenya. It all started last Thursday when I joined with a Team very keen in helping us sort our issues on waste and mis-management of the same in Kenya at the Mt. Carmel in Kilimani. I will be giving more details on the meeting after we have concretized our Action Plan.
Then, I joined with the National Youth Forum under the leadership of Migosi Nahum Okwiya to pay a Courtesy Call on Hon Martha Karua- the Narc Kenya Presidential Candidate in next Year's Presidential Elections at her Presidential Campaign Headquarters.This was the 3rd meeting with Presidential Candidates to help interrogate their vision on Employment Creation, the question of the Youth and Environmental Management. The National Youth Forum had made similar Courtesy Calls on Hon Peter Kenneth and Hon William Ruto- both Presidential Candidates in next Year's Elections.
The National Youth Forum Leadership led by Mr. Nahum Okwiya- 2nd Left, met with Hon Martha Karua on the 1st November 2012 at her Presidential Campaign Headquarters.
Similar interrogations with other Presidential Candidates are in the offing and we will be giving an informed opinion on all of them after the rounds of Courtesy Calls on all of them.
Next, I was at Kakamega on Friday the 2nd where in the company of Student Leaders from Masinde Muliro University, we paid a Courtesy Call on the Town Clerk- Municipal Council of Kakamega Mr. Newton Mkabue. We had a nice meeting and we were joined by the Chief Public Health Officer Mr. Patrick Mahulo. The Council and the Students will host a major Clean-up in Kakamega on the 17th November 2012.

On Saturday the 3rd Nov, I joined with the Founder of A Better World/SOF-DI Ms Brigitte Frey in Emuhaya to inaugurate the latest Spring she has rehabilitated in the region. Ms Frey is a Member of the Board of Trustees at The Clean Kenya Campaign and one of our biggest benefactor and she is in the Country to inspect the works she is supporting in Western Kenya.
It is important to note that this is the 147th Spring A Better World/SOF-DI have supported in the 3 Districts of Emuhaya, Kwishero and Vihiga besides other major one off projects.
Ms Brigitte Frey welcomes me at the Echibiywe Springs where I officially inaugurated the Spring made in Memory of the late John Simunovich
SOF-DI has also greatly supported organic Farming in Western Kenya and I was able to see for myself what Ms Frey and her Team have accomplished. We visited several Demonstration Sites and we met very enthusiastic Farmers who took us to their homes and farms. This is a sure game changer in Western Province and I am proud that SOF-DI has been recognized by the Government of Kenya and given a Certificate of Appreciation for helping to create food security in Western Province through what they are teaching Farmers.
I will be giving details of my visit to the SOF-DI supported Farmers and the revolution that is Soya Beans Farming.

This has been some great time for me; meeting with a determined Team at Mt. Carmel in Kilimani, then joining the National Youth Forum in paying a Courtesy Call on Hon Martha Karua, before proceeding to Masinde Muliro and Maseno Universities for some candid discussions with Student Leaders. In between, a meeting with the Town Clerk and his Team in Kakamega, then the best of it all, joining Ms Frey in inspecting the great work SOF-DI is doing in Western Kenya.
It was a well taken Field Trip, and now, we are back to The Clean Kenya Campaign and on the 17th November, 2012, we are inviting all our Friends, Partners and Teams, to join hands in a Major Clean-up Campaign across all Kenya.
The Clean Kenya Campaign Team and the University Students for a Clean Kenya will join with PYGRON and the Residents of Sofia Majengo for a Clean-up in Sofia Majengo- Pumwani Nairobi.
