Garbage collection in Kajiado still a disaster

The issue of garbage collection in Kajiado County has been riddled with lots of chaos. There is a rise in the number of heaps of garbage and illegal dump sites in Ngong Ward. This poses a lot of health risk to the public.

It is unfortunate that despite numerous complaints, no action has been taken. It is the duty of the county government to ensure that residents are provided with basic services without any discrimination.

Ngong town a haven of drug abuse and crime

I'm a peace-loving and law abiding resident of Ngong. I'm also a bona fide and duly registered voter. However, I'm perturbed by the rise in lawlessness, drug abuse and juvenile delinquency among the youth. They collude with criminal gangs to commit crime, cause disturbance of peace and also dumping of garbage in residential areas.

Uncollected garbage emits foul stench, it is an eye sore and a great health risk. We are all required to uphold high standards of hygiene and cleanliness. I am appealing, through Metropolitan Shopper, to the relevant government authorities to appropriately take action.
