The aerial view shows it is black. When you get downwards, it starts becoming green,&#8221; Mudavadi said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, it&#8217;s a serious issue. The government is looking on a serious programme that will be under deputy President Rigathi Gachagua to ensure that cleaning of Nairobi River is an urgent issue on the agenda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The CS said the river must be cleaned so that polluted waters don&#8217;t drain into River Athi, thereby polluting the latter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There must be a deliberate, concerted effort and urgent one. We are appealing to international communities that we must clean Nairobi River. Once we clean it, then River Athi will be clean,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mudavadi however, warned those polluting the rivers saying their days were numbered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I warn the people and the factories discharging poison and garbage in those rivers. It&#8217;s going to be expensive and punitive if they don&#8217;t stop that habit because people, livestock and wildlife&#8217;s lives are in danger,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The CS said the pollution has exposed citizens to diseases including cancer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cancer is a disease with lots of problems. If it gets into your home, then poverty has entered. It&#8217;s an expensive disease.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mudavadi said cancer can wipe out families&#8217; investments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
