Governor Johnson Sakaja granted permanent employment status to over 3,500 Green Army environmental workers at Central Park. This action represents the largest sector recruitment since 1987. The governor expanded the original plan from 2,452 confirmations to benefit more workers. Officials described this decision as a historic achievement for municipal cleanliness efforts. The move aims to improve lives of workers at lower economic levels.
Sakaja emphasized worker dedication while urging continued discipline and commitment from staff members. He announced plans to establish Green Nairobi Company as an autonomous cleanliness management agency. The organization will function similarly to water service operations. Benchmarking visits to South Africa and Kigali informed company development strategies. Financing arrangements remain under preparation for the new entity.
County officials praised worker performance over two years of service. The Nairobi County Public Service Board conducted verification processes before employment confirmation. Green Army members exceed 4,000 youth participants engaged in garbage collection and environmental restoration activities. Workers maintain public spaces and conduct river cleanup operations throughout the capital city.
