Displacement of Persons in Kibra Yesterday, at the invitation of community leaders in Kibra, I visited the ongoing rehabilitation works started by the national government. Currently they are building a sewer line to cover most parts of Kibra, a much welcome relief for all residents who do not have access to proper sanitary facilities. Unfortunately this project has displaced alot of families along its path with the result of seperating families, disrupting school going children and leaving a good number of households vulnerable. In general, over 200 households are now living in indignity. We are appealing to the authorities to ensure humane treatment of persons affected by this project. We will also be appealing to the UN Habitat to offer immediate humanitarian assistance and follow with a visit to Kibra on Thursday to offer assistance to rebuild their homes from well wishers. #Onward.....to a dignified life.
