Friends,
We had a very lively launch of the Clean-up Campaign in Kisumu City yesterday.
The occasion was graced by His Worship the Mayor of Kisumu Cllr Sam Okello, DO 2 Ms Lilian Itubo, Chairman of Environment Department at the Municipal Council of Kisumu Cllr Romanus Odhoch, the Director of Environment at the Municipal Council of Kisumu Mr. Thomas Sweta and many more guests.
Mayor Okello announced that the Municipal Council of Kisumu will start a Monthly Clean-up Campaign and from now on, they will own the process and work with like minded organizations for the betterment of Kisumu City. He also urged the Youth and Women Groups to step forward and take advantage of the Funds that have been earmarked to support environmental activities.
For the clean-up, we were joined by the Kenya Airways Crew from Kisumu led by Mr. Sammy Ndirangu and Mary Nyabuto, Nakumatt Mega Team from Kisumu led by Mr. Joseph Wanyoike, the Kisumu Poly Students led by Mr. Ezekiel Obongo, the Oile Market team led by Henry Obara and many CBOs.
We were also joined us by Dr. George Omburo, a Friend of KCDN from New Jersey in the USA who shared his experiences with the people present. Later, he made a donation of Kshs 5,000.00 to the CEO KCDN to help advance The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign.
In the afternoon, we received Kshs 10,000.00 from Prof PLO Lumumba as his personal support to The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign.
On behalf of KCDN, I want to sincerely appreciate this support from Dr Omburo and PLO. They have been Friends of KCDN and they have supported us previously. Thank you so much.
We will be in Kakamega tomorrow for a Consultative Meeting with the Town Clerk and his team and we want to invite all our Friends in Kakamega to get in touch and be part of this growing campaign.
Thank you Kisumu and thank you Kenyans for the support you are continuing to give us with this campaign.
We are looking forward to creating a partnership that will add value to this campaign with all willing Kenyans.
We at KCDN -www.kcdnkenya.org firmly believe that we the People of Kenya can help Clean Kenya.
This is a campaign for Kenya by Kenyans. Let us make it big……
If it is to be, it is up to me. A Clean Kenya Starts With me. A Peaceful Kenya is my Responsibility.
Disclaimer; The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign is about us Kenyans. It involves all Kenyans from the various regions, religious persuasions, political thinking and we do not discriminate against any Kenyans nor any region.
