I usually hold leaders accountable and I must commend MCA @Waithera_Chege for doing amazing work in South B. The drainages were blocked by people building on reserves, littering and also thickets blocking drainage. It would flood and be a sad affair things are better now✌🏾🇰🇪

@Daniel_musyimiK @SheTheKing_ @UNEP @Waithera_Chege @MaryMutula1 @Elsa_kamau @WHRDhub @FemnetProg @CARE @UririSJC @KariobangiSJC @crawntrustkenya Women are more likely to live in poverty, be vulnerable to natural disasters & experience the direct impacts of flooding & drought. Despite being disproportionately affected by the effects of climate change, they are often left out of climate discussions and time is now on o act

Water for sex is an issue of power relations. Women and children are the most affected and water is being used as a privileged comodity. Women are now speaking about it and it is happening mostly in slums.~Sam Shivaji @CanHCKenya

@Waithera_Chege the MCA for Nairobi South ward reiterates the need for women aspirants to participate in political party nominations and to ensure that they are aware of the political party that is strong at their local wards or constituencies. "Politics is largely local"

@Nairobi_News @SakajaJohnson THE MATTER SHOULD NOT AT ALL GO TO THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, THAT IS MISLEADING. I THINK @Waithera_Chege PUSHED IN THE 2ND ASSEMBLY AND THERE IS A POLICY ON THIS AT THE COUNTY LEVEL TO FAMILIARIZE.
