[wanabidii] Action at long last- PS Environment

Friends, I am happy to report that at long last, we are Moving From Talking to Tasking. The Permanent Secretary Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources Mr. Ali D Monamed convened the 1st Meeting between the Government, NEMA, the City Council of Nairobi and a few Stakeholders this morning at the Conference Room at the Ministry Headquarters, and the PS was very clear- Waste must be removed from our midst.    We must not live like this. In a meeting that was chaired by Mr. FN Kihumba on his behalf and Mr. Titus Simiyu- the County Director of Environment-Nairobi County, clear steps on the Process of Separation of Waste at Source was mapped out. In Partnership with Tetra Pak EA Ltd, all the various Groups in Nairobi are invited to start sorting out all Tetra Pak Packaging and even the hydrophobic packaging materials for immediate delivery to Tetra Pak EA. All the Groups will be zoned and given clear mandate as the Pilot Process targets Eastleigh Estate. This initiative will see the Ministry and her Partners giving technical and material support to all Groups that will be involved. They will be supporting Practical Steps that include sorting, holding grounds, transporting, bailing and all that. We at The Clean Kenya Campaign are elated to be part of this great initiative. We want to invite all Organized Groups in Nairobi to reach out to us for more information. We will send out forms to all Groups who might want to be part of this Great Transformation. All Kenyans are invited to help by keeping their immediate neighbourhoods clean The meeting was also attended by Representatives from the Ministry of Energy and the City Council of Nairobi. In the 2nd meeting next week, we will involve more players, Teams who have something to offer and ultimately, we will create a Network of Stakeholders in the Waste Industry with one Clear Objective- that all Waste must be removed from our midst. We have too many players in the Waste Industry all working at cross purposes and this initiative is going to reign on all the pretenders. In the meantime, we will be meeting a select Team for a Strategic Planning Session on the Waste and Garbage issue along the Ngong River Tributaries in Lindi and Laini Saba tomorrow at 9am. Due to some changes, the meeting will be hosted at City Hall Annexe 1st Floor Room 116. I want to sincerely thank all our Key Partners in The Clean Kenya Campaign. Your efforts have ultimately yielded some positive action which we must all support. And for all those in authority, and are unable to help move the process forward, your time is up. You cannot occupy Government Space and time and deliver nothing. You will either have to pack and ship off, or, you will have to shape up and start working. Let us all work for a Clean Kenya as a Transformative Deliverable as we turn 50.
