We are on the ground, and community participation speaks volumes. We are happy with the cooperation from the residents,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Murangi added that a healthy environment contributes to a healthy life, thus community members must play their part.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are heading towards the festive season, and people coming here for holidays must find this place clean and leave it clean,\u201d he urged.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the few cleaning materials they have at their disposal, Murangi commended the helping hand from of Epukiro Small Business for their support.<\/p>\n<p>He also said the assistance from the Epukiro Women Farmers\u2019 Association under Kavee Hambira, who made a tractor available for the clean-up campaign, is likewise praise-worthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are also providing the participants on the ground with two meals per day, and that is aimed at energising the members,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>However, the administrative officer is not happy with the dumping site at the settlement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt needs reconstruction, especially at the entrance, as the rubbish is blown away by the wind. Even the waste delivery place is not suitable for the purpose, and we need to do something,\u201d lamented Murangi.<\/p>\n<p>Among the affected farmers from Okozondje village is Ringo Siririka, who said their cattle were feeding on rubbish at the dumpsite, threatening the health of the livestock.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a big concern, as our livestock are eating rubbish. My brother lost a cow which died after eating some of that rubbish. Something needs to be done, and it\u2019s good that the clean-up campaign will make a difference,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign ends today and Murangi requested other corporate companies to come on board and assist with its smooth running.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
