you have to train yourself to carry that small piece of paper or plastic in your big handbag full of unnecessary things until you find a dustbin or take it home.

Kutoka Khoja, all along River road, the whole of Nyamakima, all the way past Kamukunji to Gikomba and beyond, there isn't a single dustbin. Not one.

Siwezi beba maplastic kwa mkono the whole day ati because the general and the chokosh before him have an @Anglututu attitude towards downtown Nairobi.

I am very ready to do my bit to make the environment where I live and work as clean as it can possibly be. It's what I can do for myself.

the question that should be bothering you is whether your local government is willing to support you

Business owners are the biggest culprits. If everyone could just clean their front spaces, littering would not be a big problem.

If I pay my mboch to clean my house, I don't need to clean it myself. Kanjo is our mboch, and rates and licences fees are the pay. We can't pay and work at the same time.

Kuna wale wamedanganywa na story ya Kigali what they don't know is that Kigali kanji pay other companies to keep the city clean and its not as a result of umuganda

From a biz point, you make some sense.
But from an environmental and social point, not so.
This is a good initiative to train future generations and current on social responsibility.
Everyone is quick to praise Rwanda on its progress, this is one of the ways they achieve it.
We just need to change gears as a country, tuko na fujo mob.

This is actually a good idea...it's called ownership. You wouldn't litter where you have personally cleaned unless you have the brain of a pig.... There should be an additional Saturday for planting Jacaranda trees on areas that will not be earmarked for another road leading to jkia

Nothing colonial about this...kindly re-educate yourself on the role of an individual to his/her society....during the colonial days Africans were paid to do this not the entire African society was involved....

Just explain to me like a 2yr old why...
1) I pay kanjo for a SBP, rates and many other taxes
2) a hawker who doesn't pay anything comes and sets up shop outside my premises, thereby restricting the flow of customers to my shop
3) the same hawker leaves a pile of garbage at my doorstep
4) major general requires me to clean up this shit.

It's just a choice be part of the solution or be part of the problem.
Now if 100 people reason like you and have kids, the kids adopt the same mentality they see from the parents, we shall never get out of this situation.

Perhaps you're the one who needs reeducating...
In colonial times people were forced to dig trenches, terraces etc and we're not paid so yes it is borrowing from some stupid colonial law.
I dare say that this law is stupidity on steroids and won't see the light of day

'forced to'.....who has forced you to clean? Those forced by the way were prisoners other Africans were hired so that they could pay the hut tax

What is the work of the city or county government?
And why do home owners pay land rates to the county?

I challenge you you name a single city in a democratic country where a similar law applies.

USA during the Roosevelt years had the plant a million trees initiative, Calgary in Canada even developed a website to guide it's people on how to handle waste, Singapore - the entire country during its formative years.
These initiatives are usually done for a short period then laws are passed banning littering, dustbins are installed and collection teams/city council is empowered to do their job
