Nairobi Governor Sakaja Johnson has announced that the “Dishi Na County” initiative has reached the milestone of 30 million meals served within 14 months of its launch. This program has provided nourishment to over 310,000 students across 230 public schools in 17 subcounties of the city.
During a recent coalition meeting, Governor Sakaja highlighted the program’s transformative impact, particularly for students in informal settlements.
Nairobi City County's excavators and cranes continue to clear the site of the collapsed eight-storey building in the Kahawa West area.
The county has announced that three adjacent buildings have shown signs of defects and have been issued with Enforcement Notices and tenants advised to vacate these respective buildings.
"We have advised residents of adjacent buildings to evacuate until an audit of the neighbouring buildings to the fateful building to establish structural stability. The audit will extend to cover all other highrise buildings in the entire area of Kahawa West. Members of the public are requested to cooperate with the officials during this audit exercise, which will be carried out in a civil and non-distruptive as possible,” said Patrick Mbogo, County Executive, Built Environment.
Earlier, Nairobi County and other teams were fully engaged in rubble excavations and clearance. The County's Multi sectoral team continues to man the command centre to coordinate operations.
“We will also ensure Patrick Rwamba, the building's owner, is arrested and arraigned in court,” said Mr Mbogo.

City Hall News Gone are the days Nairobi residents were camping at city Hall for a day or a week seeking for services.....City Hall Annex is no longer just a building without order and dignity..
For those who’ve been to City Hall Annex, you’ll be pleased at the just concluded renovations and the brand new Customer Service Centre which Nairobi Governor Sakaja Johnson unveiled last year.
It’s beyond the physical improvements, Nairobi City County Government have trained fresh teams waiting to serve you.
The building, which hasn’t been renovated in the decades it has been in existence, it's now giving county staff a conducive working environment where they can operate in a dignified space for them to translate this to you. This is only the first step in improving our service delivery.
Hapa nayo Sakaja you did justice to the disabled they can now access city hall easily unlike there before.

Uhuru Park is now fully operational, putting to rest recent rumors about its closure.
According to records from park officials, the iconic green space has attracted over 2,000 visitors over the past two weekends, signaling its growing popularity since reopening. The park was temporarily closed due to damage inflicted during citywide protests in June; however, it has been in operation since September 28th, 2024.
Maureen Njeri, the County Executive Committee (CEC) Member for Green Nairobi, addressed concerns surrounding the closure, saying:
“The park was closed temporarily for safety reasons after incidents of vandalism during the protests. We had to ensure that all damages were fully repaired, especially to key features like the caravan and airplane sculptures,” Njeri said.
Visitors are required to present identification upon entry. According to Njeri, over 2,000 people have visited the park over the past two weekends, a sign of its rising popularity.
“Uhuru Park is a vital part of Nairobi’s heritage, and we’re happy to see Nairobians returning to enjoy its beauty,” said Njeri. “We’ve restored the monuments, cleaned the ponds, and ensured that everything is in top shape for visitors.”
Meanwhile, renovations at Central Park, located nearby, are still underway. The park is expected to be completed by December 2024, and like Uhuru Park, it will be handed over to the Nairobi City County once the work is finished.
“We’re very excited about the upcoming reopening of Central Park as well. Nairobi’s green spaces are critical for residents’ well-being, and we’re committed to maintaining them,” Njeri said, adding that the county will continue collaborating with the National Government on such projects.
Uhuru Park now boasts scenic views of Nairobi’s skyline, including landmarks such as Upper Hill and the Nairobi Expressway. Visitors can also enjoy a botanical trail, restored historical monuments, peaceful ponds, and spacious seating area
