When I first visited Mombasa almost 40 years ago - it was by far the best and cleanest city i had ever visited. i used to hear stories of Eldoret but never got a chance to visit it until probably 25 years ago. by then things had changed. Sadly over the years Mombasa was filled with filth and a center of crows. It begged for attention.
Mombasa is now my city for the last 32 years. Miraculously, I have seen it transform in real time in
less than a year. The Garbage collection is on the path. The beutification is
for real. The young country traffic marshals mean business. In a nutshell –
there is something good Governor Joho is
doing for the county. This is to appreciate him with his team. Let us all join
hands and revamp tourism for the region.
on another note - today I received a mail from a young dear friend working in
Dubai. Her name is Rose Atieno have known her for more than 10 years. In part this is what she wrote and I share it
so that it can inspire all of us that we can make a difference in our own
little way to our motherland.
