The Nairobi River rejuvenation campaign has received a shot in the arm with the government and stakeholders conducting a clean-up and tree planting in Starehe Sub-County.

Starehe Sub-County Deputy County Commissioner John Kisang led the exercise on Wednesday behind Kamukunji police station where riparian land has been reclaimed. He said their main agenda is to plant trees to achieve the 15 billion trees target President William Ruto promised.
