Over the weekend, the Governor of Kiambu County, Kimani Wamatangi, alongside his wife, the Kiambu County First Lady Ann Wamatangi, and other officials from the Kiambu County government, surprised many by taking part in a clean-up exercise in Kiambu town.
This proactive move by the elected leaders was unexpected by many, as it is not common to see such high-ranking officials participating in community activities like a clean-up exercise.
Governor Wamatangi stated that the exercise was part of a larger initiative dubbed "Keeping Kiambu Clean," which aims to keep the county's environment clean and healthy for its residents.
He added that the clean-up exercise takes place every last Saturday of the month in all twelve sub-counties in Kiambu County.
The Governor's involvement in the clean-up exercise was well-received by many residents who expressed their gratitude for his leadership and dedication to improving the community. It was refreshing for them to witness elected leaders take part in such activities, as it is not a common sight.
The positive response from the residents highlights the importance of community service and the impact it can have on the environment and the community as a whole. Governor Wamatangi's involvement in the clean-up exercise serves as a great example for other leaders to follow in promoting good hygiene practices and environmental conservation.
The "Keeping Kiambu Clean" initiative has been ongoing for some time, and it involves various stakeholders, including the county government, community-based organizations, and local residents.
The clean-up exercise, led by Governor Wamatangi and his team, was aimed at encouraging good hygiene practices and environmental conservation within the county. The Governor's active participation in such community service is a commendable effort toward promoting environmental awareness and conservation in Kiambu County.
