Let’s work together to clean up Nairobi, Johnson Sakaja asks police

What you need to know:

  • Sakaja expressed his dissatisfaction in the manner in which contactors who are supposed to clean the city are the ones who are dumping the waste along the roads, and in estates
  • He revealed that some truck drivers are impatient to withstand the long traffic and queues in Dandora dumping site


Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja says a lack of coordination between national and county government officials is creating a loophole for lawbreakers to breach city regulations. 

While the county has the authority to license alcohol sellers, both levels of government have powers to enforce compliance, an overlap that has at times created conflict among security officers and opened a loophole for lawbreakers.
