Government Urges Evacuations for Nairobi River Regeneration Project in Kileleshwa and Lavington

WATER INFRASTRUCTURE & DESALINATION

The Kenyan government has requested residents in Kileleshwa and Lavington to vacate riparian land for the Nairobi River Regeneration Project, which has a budget of Ksh50 billion. This initiative aims to restore the river's health and public safety by constructing a trunk sewer line and expanding wastewater treatment.

Continued resistance in these areas threatens the project's success and impacts millions downstream. The project has created over 40,000 jobs, focusing on environmental restoration and community involvement.
