Deputy President Kindiki told folks Monday about the big cleanup starting that same day. President Ruto came along for the announcement as he began his development tour through Nairobi. They visited Eastleigh, where Kindiki shared details about fixing dirty waterways across the metropolitan area. Workers plan to clean rivers plus fix broken sewers throughout the entire city. These improvements should protect people from diseases carried by contaminated water. The project aims to reduce flooding problems that happen during heavy rains. Kindiki emphasized how these changes would make life better for regular citizens living near these waterways. The Deputy President asked everyone across Kenya to support nationwide growth plans. He pointed out how President Ruto brings together different community leaders. Kindiki praised efforts to connect various religious groups under one national vision. He believes teamwork between diverse communities helps create prosperity for all Kenyans. President Ruto provided more details about housing construction plans. After the cleanup is complete, new affordable homes will rise along restored riverbanks. The massive project will create jobs for thirty thousand young people who need work. These positions help youth earn money through environmental improvement tasks across Nairobi. Last November, President Ruto met with lawmakers from Nairobi at the State House. He shared impressive statistics about progress made in cleaning seventy-five kilometers of riverbanks. Workers have already removed blockages from sixty-nine kilometers of water channels. The team leveled fifty-six kilometers of riverbed to improve water flow through urban areas. Environmental protection measures include planting thousands of trees near waterways. Crews established hundreds of tree nurseries to support future greenery efforts. President Ruto asked city representatives to temporarily put politics aside. He described the regeneration project as essential for transforming Nairobi into a modern capital city. [/QUOTE]
