NGONG RIVER CLEAN UP
Tomorrow is the day. Tonight, someone in Kibera is listening to rain on iron sheets and doing maths no one should have to do—how high is the water, how fast can we move the mattress, which path is still passable with a child on your back.
Flooding is not a headline here; it is a neighbour knocking at 3 a.m., a shoe floating past your door, a smell that lingers after the water goes down. The Ngong River carries more than water—it carries plastic, soil, and everything careless days have dumped upstream.
Unclogging a river is not romantic work. It is sacks, shovels, sweat, and the stubborn belief that if water can flow, maybe next week a family sleeps dry. It is also community courage: showing up when you are tired, because tired is still better than trapped.
We are showing up to let the river breathe again—so when the clouds return, Kibera is not paying the full price for other people’s waste. Come early. Wear boots if you have them. Bring gloves. Bring a friend. Bring the kind of patience that outlasts one morning. #LetTheRiversFlow
If you cannot lift a sack, you can still help: stop trash at the source, call out dumping, and remind each other that a river is not a convenient place to make problems disappear.
Efforts: Inputs - Waste Management Project Strategy
Soon, just very soon. It will all make sense. Efforts, sleepless nights.... Stress, strategies, failures and minor successes... One day, I'll look back and say, Yes, I created a *System* Generation System... Me and the people I serve will be grateful... I'll be happy to have served my purpose in this world. 😊😊
