Governor Mutahi Kahiga Pledges On Solid Waste Management

Vision

To sustain a healthy and clean environment.

Achievements

  • We have sustained a clean environment by collecting 110,000 tons of garbage annually in towns, clearing bushes along the feeder roads, and unclogging drainage systems. We have constructed 71 waste receptacles as a drop of points for the garbage.
  • To enhance efficiency in garbage collection we have shifted from waste chambers to skips and have acquired 29 skips and 2 specialized collection trucks.
  • To curb illegal activities mainly associated with dumpsites, we have constructed perimeter walls at Karindundu, Gikeu, and blue valley waste transfer station where reusable and recyclable waste is sorted to enhance waste recovery.

Our commitment

  • We will establish electronic waste drop-in centers in every sub-county to enhance efficiency in waste collection and provide color-coded litter bins and skips for every major market and shopping center for wastes separation.
  • We will engage with public-private partnerships to invest in recyclable and biodegradable waste equipment that will sort as well as process waste to better uses and to ensure that the non-recyclable is well-disposed in designated sanitary landfills. This investment will create more than 500 jobs for the youth.
