{{Kigali’s progress has received praise regionally particulary due to its cleanliness and security, Nairobi though a bigger and old city wants to replicate our city\u2019s style.

In this respect a group of Nairobi City officials are in the country to study some of the measures that makes Kigali stand out in the region.<\/p>\n
Certainly, Kigali is not only praised for its tidiness but also its infrastructure which facilitates competitive business.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the progress, Kigali mayor Fidel Ndayisaba encouraged the councilors to involve citizens in both decision making and implementation of programs. He added that this promoted accountability at the same time boosted the morale of citizens towards building their country. <\/p>\n
He further pointed out that joint effort was essential since citizens discuss solutions or conduct self regulation amongst themselves without waiting for any intervention from authorities. For instance traders in a mall encourage each other to have a litter bin. <\/p>\n
The mayor of Nairobi George Alandwa noted that they intend to review some of their city laws especially those that promote cleanliness in the city . \u201cKigali is amazing and we intend to form laws that guarantee the same which we hope we would also spur development in our city,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n
Former Nairobi mayor Joe Akech was also quick to point out that they\u2019re going to replicate some of Kigali\u2019s best practices. The order in various bus terminals was also praised unlike in Nairobi where con men take advantage on the disorganized terminals to steal from commuters.<\/p>\n
\u201cRecently I was in London and I must say that Kigali is comparable to the UK city than our Nairobi which is inhibited by slum dwellers and indecent houses,\u201d said Peter Muchiri councilor representing Kariokor suburb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
