MANDERA COUNTY COMMUNITY AFFORESTATION PROJECT LAUNCH- on 16th Feb 2015

This morning I visited my previous primary school, neighboring boys and girls schools. It’s very shameful to me, to plant thousands trees in other part of the county when back at home the picture is grim, the several charity initiatives I helped initiate in other parts of the country stands high, in contrast I feel frustrated for the failure to initiate tangible programs to save and mitigate against the vices of insecurity, gender based violence, drug and substance abuse, FGM, high infant mortality rate, the fight against Malaria in Africa, Kenya youth for change- Sakata dance crew, early marriage to name but a few of the social ills bedeviling the community, yet I attributes success to trying out various ideas without discouragement and determination to reach communities ultimate goals out of my circle-elsewhere or (DIASPORA), am giant away and dwarf at home!
My focus theme would be betterment of the environment for the future. In this regard therefore, environmental conservation will take precedence over everything else, by taking bold step as it’s our responsibility to make Mandera county a better place and evergreen hub if measures to address the causes can reduce both problems at hands.
The project ambitious plan will be to build, forested county, nation, free from famine and degraded environmental conditions.
Today, initiative had just been launched, in partnership with Mandera south sub-county government representatives; this would also see the enthusiasm in the young conservation club team in the school to be re-introduced and implemented through school based agencies like young farmers association, scout and reviving of 4K club.
The essence was to try alienating the community from the inferior thought of inability to thrive a better environment, empower the student and youth with the necessary skills to survive the difficulties that have entangled them.
Despite all this challenges, we are passionately looking for productive volunteering team who can’t get tired of the community initiative, even though it is tough time to attend to these assignments to unlock our mind to a new attitude and start significant change. Let us dedicate and sacrifice our precious off time and introduce ourselves in meaningful operation to save our environment and one day InshAllah we will enjoy every minutes of our self-volunteering. It’s a great volunteering activity to participate in, if only we spare 2-3 hours every Saturday as we look forward to forging with any other interested partner.
It’s great if we could provide highly dedicated, volunteering service to our community, help to inspire young generation and re-frame a new mind and mental attitude with our goals.
It remains the biggest challenges to our environment reduce wind effect, soil erosion that is associated with deforestation.
The initiatives will ensure it impacts positively to the community include ensuring that knowledge to impart to families and institutions for changes touching human lives. It’s time to leave the comfort zone and stop residing on the desert and drought environment.
As our strategic objectives is to engage youths in the campaign as working towards planting over 80,000 trees before June 2016.
Provide practical learning for communities on how to create forest, initiate capacity building and inclusive home garden practice by visiting homes to plan, plan and encourage the aspects of garden on one side and teaching of new rights on forest on the other, with plan to double their capacity on the garden in the house as their homestead totally changes as beautifying building, super home with lovely modern garden and make significant treasures at the residential facilities and give them a family living experience.
Garden practice can give one some feeling, something one gets used to very easily, possible for the individual to make it really work in great way, when it comes to choosing, it’s good to have one with the best visual experience.
Our efforts will one day bear fruits by giving hope to our people and showing compassion to the rest of the county communities for the suffering they underwent through ownership of proper garden, forest and park practice program.
