We are Lazy. We say there are no Jobs to do and we stay idle.
There is too much work to be done on Properly returning Nairobi to be the cool city in the sun.
Since Kidero, Omondi, Musila, Kamau, Korir, Duale, Wetabix, wanjiku, Anyango, wayua etc want white collar jobs and re the same people who dump in both city and its estates we need then to mechanize cleaning of the city- estates, roads, etc
The more we delay to kick the tenderpreneurs away the more Kenyans make beelines in hospitals and Chemists due to poisoned health (Dumping on roads source of fungal and bacterial diseases) and even non-contagious diseases like Asthma and Cancer
How would Kenya give tenders to clean the city to these corrupt Indian Tender-preneurs whose aim is to make Nairobi more dirty and confused by corruptly paying officers to protect their tenders and poor paid workers working hard but doing nothing by the end of the day.
An example is cleaning Haileselassie Avenue and dumping beside the carbs (Kerbs) just for Matatus to ride on the dirt and putting it back. Check the point near Kenya Railways Offices along Haileselassie Avenue,
It is time to do away with Indian companies to do local jobs.
The city cannot be cleaned only at night from city to its estate. It needs a 24 hour continuous cleaning and charging heavily Mama Mbogas and Hawkers who dump.
Indians way of making roads during Moi error was pathetic and reason Kibaki kicked them off.
Sugarcane sellers, chicken sellers, Fish mongers etc in city and estates should be forced to collect all their mess. If you travel to most of the roads the sewers are blocked by cane husks, polythenes , motor waste etc.
The Garages are where they are not supposed to be hence dumping of radioactive oils onto open sewers
A cleaning truck (Machine) would sweep roads in City more than an employed Wanjiku who much of the time is gossiping and telling hawkers when Council askaris are. Who dumps at the roundabout joining Ronald Ngala to Pumwani road (Mungiki roundabout). There are shacks along Pumwani road who sell food (restaurants) and for sure they are the people who dump. They give the refuse to chokoras to dump who in return get food and sleep there at night!!!
Though most of the cleaning Tenders are owned by Indian companies, I for sure have never seen any India Manager for the same inspect work done. They just employ poor paid Kambas and Luhyas to supervise.
I did a survey and found similar cleaning companies owned by Indians tender for run down Kenyatta Hospital which never look clean.
Why not have a law requiring ll building in the city to have Garbage chutes and bins with a collection point? This should as well affect estates.
The estates should have trucks with labelled numbers for each building to shove their waste as the truck moves along designated locations.
Why let in some people as hawkers and arrest others.
No extensions should be allowed along the roads in city or estates as they aid in dumping on sewers, culverts are also made haphazardly.
The Bus station is no longer as it sounds, Machakos bus station is even a market
The section of Haileselassie avenue near wakulima market has been hived off by hawkers reducing the 3 lines road to 1.
