[wanabidii] The Clean up Campaign at Huruma was a big flop

Oduor,

Where were the usual "suspects", the spade wielding "heros" and the proverbial and symbolic wheelbarrow?

City Hall must have "failed" this time for they did not provide wheelbarrows, spades, nose masks, brooms and all the paraphernalia for the show and photo sessions.

I cannot agree with Oto more, this was a flop for the only photo here is of another previous function rather than photo posing for the 'clean up."

Is this where other "initiatives" under the umbrella are headed? FLOP!

Sungu.

Roz,

I wish you wouldn't ridicule something with such a majestic theme as "The Journey of Hope Across Kenya".

Heheheheheheheheeeee !!!!!!   I just can't get this theme out of my head. It's just too beautiful. I can feel tears dropping off my face just by reading it.

Courage

Dear Friends,
I want to start by appreciating the many residents of Huruma who turned up on Saturday the 29th June 2013 expecting to join with His Excellency the President for a Clean-up Campaign and left disappointed. We were equally disappointed at The Clean Kenya Campaign-TCKC.
From the outset, The Governor and his Team at the Department of Environment ignored us and we did not mind. We knew that Clean-ups were never the only domain for us and as such, we were willing to sit out and just join in like all the rest of the participants. We only joined the last planning session when NEMA invited us to their meeting with the Exhibitors. No officer from the Nairobi City County attended that meeting at NEMA Headquarters.
Then the anti-climax; the President ordered the hawkers back to the streets! Was he well briefed on the question of Waste and Waste Management? He said nothing on this, yet, this was the real thing.
Odhiambo T Oketch addressing a Peace Campaign in Dagoreti in February 2013.
It is a known fact that we have hosted several very successful Clean-up Campaigns across the whole Country. Our organizational acumen and professional engagement speaks for it self. We were hence taken aback when some Journeyman from Kisumu, posted on social media that I do not belong to, that he had authority and instructions from the office of the Governor of Nairobi to disassociate The Clean Kenya Campaign-TCKC from what the Governor and his Team were going to do at Huruma. 
We took it in our stride, because, we had not indicated in any space that we were co-hosting the event. The truth is now beginning to emerge and we are happy that we were not part of that mess.
We want to invite our investigative Journalists to dig into this circus where our President was taken. We would want to know the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
I have said this before; shifting of waste from one place to another can NEVER be Waste Management. And boasting of a Phd without tangible results on the ground is a sham. Nairobi remains the dirtiest City in the Sun and it is a shame that officers detailed to keep our City Clean are more concerned with contracts for printing T-shirts, caps and procuring useless Cleaning Materials.
We have hosted several successful Clean-up Events across Kenya and we are happy that not a single Council has given us a penny for our efforts. And we have also NEVER asked for a single penny from any Council. Our efforts have been paid for by Friends of KCDN and TCKC and we salute all of them for this.
Let the world be told what exactly happened at Huruma and let all those who exposed our President to such poor organization and execution of such a noble Campaign be shown the door.
