The Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS) is planning to renovate Uhuru Park so that city residents can use it during this year’s Christmas season instead of travelling upcountry. This is according to NMS Director General Mohammed Badi, who revealed that his team is currently attending a workshop in Naivasha to deliberate on the project. Badi revealed this during signing of Memorandum of Understanding between NMS and UN-Habitat for the Nairobi River regeneration initiative at the recently rehabilitated Michuki Park. “We are already starting various projects in green spaces like we see Uhuru Park is soon transforming into a modern recreation center. It is the first of its kind to be implemented under our flagship one of strategy plan 2020-2023 on inclusive vibrant neighborhood and Community”, said UN-Habitat Executive Director Maimunah Mohd Sharif.
