Incredible findings NTV. I mean this are the things you should bring out more to the eyes of the public rather than politics. We are tired of watching politicians in every burial or wedding speak. It's too much. Bring such important matters to light.
siku hizi heri kuwatch switch tv at 9.00pm..kenyan news has lost its meaning its politics,business ,sports later a panel to discuss politics.. great documentary this is hope we get more
But the job of the media is awareness. They are doing their part with reports like these. They aren't responsible for the solutions. Failure in implementation of existing legislation on discharge of wastewater, and bigger institutional failures around infrastructure for handling wastewater (lack of sewer lines and adequate wastewater treatment plants causing discharge of raw sewage into the river) is to blame.
There is no solution my friend....these are the symptoms of a failed state....solution is to move to a country that makes sense. Na bado...Kiboko cha huu ujinga wa kenya kiko njiani btw....mother nature does not cut deals.
I'm so Annoyed. this is so annoying!! While NTV has done a great job by covering this, all I see is old people talking about solutions which they have not implemented. I am so fed up of these old people in leadership who do absolutely NOTHING for us! The youth need to stand up and act because this is beyond acceptable!!! 😡😡
This documentary has been wonderfully done. Excellent commentary and brilliant camerawork. I very rarely come across a 45-minute documentary on these local channels that captures my full attention from start to finish. Kudos to Charity Mwangi and everyone else who was involved in this.

Thank you NTV for a very well done piece! 👏👏👏👍 Shame on you Kenyans for imagining that your bad habits are somebody else's problem. Well the chickens have come to roost and no one in Nairobi is spared. They say you are what you eat(throw garbage anyhowly and get it back anyhow) don't blame politicians sinse you chose them, they are just doing what is natural to them.
The government has the power and capability to make it right here. Build a high wall along the rivers from their sources,equipped with CCTV cameras and electric fences just like they do in wild animal conservancies. Redirect all sewer lines that head into the river and heavily punish transgressors.
Spring, and summer fall on me Your winters be warm to me It's oh so different the way that is Her grass ain't the same green I blame this on you and me Can we treat her like a mother? Mother that she is, the mother that she is It's been long overdue now Yea were running out of time Yuh wanna know the truth now We all standing on a thin line We should learn how to treat her Don't you realize just how much we really need her So I'm sorry for the way that we pollute her air And I'm sorry for the way that we act like we don't care And the water ain't no good for drinking What have we been thinking? Treating her like this ~ Jah Cure
As a Kenyan living in Egypt whose sole source of water is the nile .its not that much polluted because its heavily protected by the government however we still have treated filter system nearly in all urban houses. Majority of the people here have it in their kitchen so this water is used for drinking,cooking etc .it might not be 100 percent safe but people here trust it .so Kenyans should start having treated filter systems dug in every household For people that can't afford this filter system or don't have constant reliable water supply such as the slums or the rural (which is crucial)the government or ngos or anyone should figure our ways of building boreholes ,wells whose water is filtered and treated There should be system set aside in managing those areas and strict rules applied to pollutants Human activity will continue there is no way this river is going to be revived we should figure out ways in which clean water is supplied to every kenyan Humans:(
we kept visiting 14 falls with friends and wondered why it was dirty and smelly and the area is not really populated that much...now i see why..the dirt just comes and comes chocking anything living in the water
I visited 14 falls in 2005 as a kid and it was very okay. I came to know of the pollution while watching this video. Yaani 16years down the line we've managed to do Such damage
Thanks for that great revelation ntv, actually there is nothing impossible especially a manmade problem. The solution is purely leadership who means business,period!!
And all this grown men pissing in streets must stop! Fix up like women they plan their mkojoo breaks be mindful plan your day train your bladder ishike adabu all fails tie a knot! Shenzi
Women need toilets too but somehow get their shit together why not men? I am a dude na sija wai kojoa on the street it’s how you brought up and I don’t live in ma ju! Allergic to prisoner communities watched/ guarded around the clock by wafula & wafula security!
The solution is not serikali kenyans need to fix up and be accountable kila mtu anatupa takataka every where and if you are responsible you watch others do it all day long! To keep kenya clean it’s a collective effort challenge eachother next tym you see some neighbour acting funky put them on the spot! Anzia hapo!
Your on point! Hold your garbage till when it's proper to discard then discard your local county representative if you have to walk 5 minutes before you find a garbage bin. Kenyas are too fixated with politics and instead of what it can fix for them!
Best comment I've seen so far. Its starts with me and you. Proper management of waste disposable. Tumeishi tukisema serikali saidia but ni sisi wenyewe ndo tunafaa kuact
We need to do something about this not only the government but we residents as well we need to clean the water from top to bottom cutt off all the swr lines n block those houses wich are betwn the rivers relocate all houses from btwn the rvrs far away from the rvers keep it clean and anyone found poluting the rvrs should be jailed for 5yrs it will change everthing that we see today.. The earlyer the better start now no of cancers also will reduce
There are soo many high rise apartments in athiriver without sewage disposal mechanism, all they have is large drainage tunnel that goes direct to a large concrete trech that drains everything to athiriver
3 ปีที่แล้ว
wah the investigation is really scaring. i hadn't thought of the big problem which is a circle. we pollute water as nairobians and the farmers strikes back when they sell their produce to us. thats why we have so many cancer cases in Kenya
Thankyou ntv...push this thing forward more airtime on such nd not just politics..tbis politicians that u bring on ur tv shows ask them wjat they are doing concerning such...just coz u live in uptown nd drink water from your tap your not save do you ask urself the vegetables nd meat u eat where they come from??
A 'Nation' is the people not landscape, water is LIFE; indeed we are over 70% water over flesh and bones! A wealthy nation is a healthy one, and health begins with clean water resources! Nairobi and her environs grapple with perennial acute water shortages while the same substance flows through her veins, polluted and reeking death. This is such a shame, a show of a vision-less non-caring leadership leading the population towards doom and absolute failure while hogging the limelight with meaningless useless political garbage! And to imagine we have a whole ministry mandated with environmental issues, and a loud authority mandated with ensuring the environment is protected (NEMA) insults all senses of intelligence. Elective politics have proven a failure in this continent, and particularly our Kenya; we watch populations invade riparian areas with impunity yet abundant laws decorate papers that gather dust, law enforcers are compromised or ordered to leave prospective 'votes' be. Listening to Joe Mutambu of AWS tells you the political animal has not much thought on actual impact on our health as a nation, but is geared towards lucrative elective office for freebies and opulence! We are a lost people unless we find our souls in this dark night of our own creation. Nature never forgives errors of greed, and her vengeance is worse than any hell you can imagine!
Each county that the river flows through should have the burden of purifying the water before the river flows into it’s next destination. Factories that dump chemicals into the river should be highly fined. That’s the only way to keep it safe for human consumption. With population increase, the dumping of human waste into the rivers will sadly still go on.
Every individual should be responsible and the government should come up with a strategy of national cleaning day for everyone (rich and poor) because this is everyone’s mess
Politicians & Government: I promise if you vote for me 2022 i will do this and this...... People: Lets vote for nani.... anatuachia mia mbili kila mtaa.... CANCER: They will start planning for the river come 2022, in the meantime lets go get these nuggets!
wow! Just wow! Yaani raw sewage just empties into the river? Sonko needs to do something with the help of the national govt. For starters why can they set a sewage treatment plant in Athi river (Machakos) coz I dont see how they will control the pollution being emptied into the river in the slums unless they demolish them!
It startles me how the river pollution factor has been around for over 20years and yet the govt has no clearly defined and outlined solution to the menace. It's time we rewarded merit. A good start would be giving ministerial job a cording to merit, not politicians awarding loyalty crap. It's hurting us dwellers of Eastlands
And that's why many Kenyans are dying of unknown disease leckless government and you ask me why... so corrupt you can't trust any leader nowadays,, my vote my choice next time mtu aje na form za development kwanza!!!
For a system that values failure and profits from the abnormal, expect little to change. If humanity abandoned Nairobi and the entire city became Africa's pripyat, these rivers would heal themselves in two years. All the beautiful papyrus and fauna and marine life would return. Blame the foolishness of mankind for this destruction especially that of the Kenyan government, which is the biggest threat to the existence of Kenya because it has been managed by deranged people and continues to this day.
We really need to take care of this rivers and water bodies. Its as if we don’t realize that this “clean” source of water are the rarest resources the world has. Remember only 2% of the worlds water is useable
If I had a shilling for every time someone said nairobi river is polluted, I would be a billionaire by now. Good job ntv but this is nothing new. How about you do a show exposing who is slacking off leading to this mess.

It's been long overdue now
Yea were running out of time

We should learn how to treat her
Don't you realize just how much we really need her
So I'm sorry for the way that we pollute her air

Treating her like this ~ Jah Cure
As a Kenyan living in Egypt whose sole source of water is the nile .its not that much polluted because its heavily protected by the government however we still have treated filter system nearly in all urban houses. Majority of the people here have it in their kitchen so this water is used for drinking,cooking etc .it might not be 100 percent safe but people here trust it .so Kenyans should start having treated filter systems dug in every household
For people that can't afford this filter system or don't have constant reliable water supply such as the slums or the rural (which is crucial)the government or ngos or anyone should figure our ways of building boreholes ,wells whose water is filtered and treated
There should be system set aside in managing those areas and strict rules applied to pollutants
Human activity will continue there is no way this river is going to be revived we should figure out ways in which clean water is supplied to every kenyan
