Nairobi governor Mike Sonko has warned of arresting those caught doing illegal dumping in the city.

Speaking on Wednesday when he embarked on the night's cleaning of the town, Sonko said he was out with his team to arrest those suspected of throwing garbage at the wrong places.

"Ongoing operation, arresting those involved in illegal dumping at Timboroa Lane, Odeon Cinema," he said. 

He reached out to youths in Nairobi to work with the county government in combating the garbage problem.

"I encourage more youth groups to partner with my government so that together, we can keep this city clean," he added.
