Mathare river burst its banks recently,one man drowned in tyhe raging,what surprises many is that at the time of the flooding,it had not rained at mathare but the flood water came from kiambu district, a source of tributes that drain inti mathare river.This took place because of the garbage and siltation on the river valley.

to avoid this to happen again in future,Nema and unep organised a clean up exercise to remove garbage and the litters within the rivers
