Nairobi County will crack down on illegal dumping and activities by hawkers and business owners in Eastleigh, as announced by Chief Officer for Environment Geoffrey Mosiria. Those found in violation of environmental laws, including unlawful dumping and blocking drainage systems, face arrest and legal action.

• Geoffrey Mosiria stated he will remain in Eastleigh for one month to oversee a cleanliness campaign.
• Hawkers are accused of not paying garbage collection fees and blocking drainage systems, leading to potential health risks and traffic hazards.
• The crackdown extends to landlords observed dumping garbage on roads or neighboring compounds, with strict legal action promised.
• This initiative follows a similar crackdown in Githurai 44 targeting landlords disposing of raw sewage illegally.
