Over the past years the government and the nongovernmental organisation have trying hard to eradicate the dumpsite in Dandora but all are in vain. Have you ever asked yourself why? Well all l can say is that as much as they are trying they hear first the view both the community leaving there and the people who are earning their living and also the city council of Nairobi.
The dumpsite has both the advantage and disadvantage, as for the advantage it has changed the lives of many youth in the surrounding areas by creating jobs such as sorting out the recycle ones and the non recycle ones thus making the easier for the recycling industry.
As for the disadvantage it a health hazard for the people working and living around it this include: cancer, lung related diseases, skin diseases cause by harmful chemicals, countless deaths leave alone the rapes and atrocity committed to little boys not forgetting theft and robberies while hiding in the dumpsite.
As for l would like the government to minimize the dumpsite so as the people don’t lose their livelihood and to reduce the dumping of dangerous and flammable chemical and if possible stop the chemical producing industry from dumping.
All the rest like insecurity will decrease.
