    "content": "Therefore, I hope that despite the challenges that the Committee has noted, for the sake of people of Njiru, which is one of the most populated constituencies, the relevant agencies will follow up together with the Committee. I hope that the Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources and NEMA will assist with the environmental issues to make sure that the young people and the community benefit from this educational facility. I assure the people of Njiru, as well as the wider Kasarani Constituency, that this is not the end of the matter. I will follow it up. I will work together with Sen. (Dr.) Milgo to make sure that the investment and work that has been put to make sure the children get a good place benefits them. Finally, beyond the school, we have had several challenges because of the quarries around Njiru and in Kasarani East in the area of Chokaa. Many of those that were closed have now become a hazard to the communities around there. Therefore, I urge NEMA to step in and help the back-filling in some of those areas. I deal with many young groups who are ready and willing to be involved because they have been earning an income in some of the quarries in Nairobi. I hope that this is something that NEMA can assist us with together with the Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA), which has been in charge of quarries in Embakasi East, Embakasi Central, as well as Kasarani and around Dandora areas. I thank the Committee and urge other Committees to do such work for Petitions that have been brought on issues of Nairobi."
