Kenya is bestowed with beautiful flora and fauna as well as magnificent scenery.
Nakuru is among the country's tourist attractions which earn the county and country huge revenue.
Most of the wildlife have become endangered species at risk of extinction.
It is against this backdrop that President Uhuru Kenyatta is expected to preside over the burning of ivory and elephants tusks on Saturday in the government's bid to tame the rampant poaching.
Kenya is fighting to save its elephants whose numbers have declined drastically due to poaching.
According to the Kenya Wildlife Service, Kenya has approximately 38,000 elephants although there has not been any physical count done.
Also, statistics show that the number of elephants in Africa have drastically dropped from 1.3 million in 1979 to about 400,000 currently.
Environment Cabinet Secretary Judy Wakhungu revealed that the illegal trade of ivory commands a market of approximately Sh1 trillion per year.
The stockpile to be burnt weighs about 120 tonness, which consists of both ivory and rhino horns.
However, the Diabetes Kenya now wants the Saturday exercise stopped saying the ivory can be sold and the money raised used to help in the treatment of diabetes patients.
"Let’s go down in to history! Sell that ivory and buy diabetes management supplies for diabetics in Kenya!’ read the NGO’s post on its twitter account.
The NGO revealed it will soon organise a meeting with diabetics in Nairobi to give them a platform to share their challenges.
