Meeting about Nairobi Dam and it's Tributaries
The room smelled of tea and rain on dust. Across the table sat Harry Jameson from SHOFCO’s C.E.O. office, and Cleve Steward and Stuart Buchaman from EcoWB — names on an agenda that usually stays in emails until someone decides to show up in person.
From ETCO, Moseti Nyaenya and Collince Onyango carried the neighbourhood’s questions in plain language: what happens to waste that slides toward the Nairobi Dam when the gutters overflow, and who pays the price when waterways become dumping grounds?
The conversation stayed practical. We talked about monthly community clean-ups that could start where feet already walk daily, then widen toward the dam reservation as trust and routine grow. No one pretended one meeting fixes a basin that carries decades of neglect.
There was another thread, equally urgent: raising awareness about gender-based violence — because environmental harm and bodily harm often share the same crowded corridors, and safety is not a separate issue from place.
Someone sketched a rough map on paper — where rubbish piles after rain, where women fetch water at dusk, where a shortcut saves ten minutes but costs a girl her peace. Paper plans are only serious when feet walk them again.
Collince closed his notebook with a snap that sounded like commitment — not drama, just the sound of a next step. If your organisation works on water, waste, or community safety and wants to co-host a clean-up or a neighbourhood dialogue, message us. We are stronger when the river and the people beside it are spoken about in one breath.

As a man. It's Okay to start all over again. Let someone love you correctly, genuinely, value you and respectfully if they have to. Somewhere in your 30s, 40s or 50s, you'll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop. It's important you see that journey through. Keep going and don't ever give up. Strong.
