Allow me to thank Kigali City Council for the great work they are doing in keeping our city clean. I was exalted when a friend of mine from Uganda praised Kigali for being a clean city and even wishing it had been chosen to host the Commonwealth Heads of State and governments (CHOGM) summit was to be held here. The CHOGM meeting is expected to take place in Kampala Uganda towards the end of November this year. Another thing that I wish to commend Kigali City Council for is the removal of street beggars. Though I am not sure of where they were taken, I hope they are better off there as compared to the street life they have been living. If they weren’t, they would have come back already. The few who are seen here and there must be new comers whom I am sure will be taken care of like the others were. A big thank you to KCC for the big vision it has and for keeping a clean city which makes our city the cleanest among the East African community member countries. Gikondo
