The Supreme Court judges made a profound acknowledgement of the critical work done by Center for Justice GEA driven not by profit, but by justice and the urgent need to safeguard human rights. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow pic.x.com/848gsKyNCK

The money owed to #OwinoUhuru is not a favour — it is compensation for damage done. It is owed now. Not “when the Treasury is ready.” Not when headlines fade. Now. We demand the immediate disbursement of the KES 1.3 billion compensation fund. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The Ministry of Environment, Climate Change & Forestry, where are you? What is your role if not to protect Kenyan lives from environmental harm? We are done waiting. We will not beg for our rights. We will demand them — in the courts, in the streets, and in the eyes of the world. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The government owes the people of #OwinoUhuru over 1.3 billion shillings. That money is not charity — it is reparations for lives destroyed, health stolen, and futures compromised. And it must be paid. Not next year. Not when “funds become available.” Now. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The lead smelter, Metal Refinery EPZ Ltd, that wrecked our community operated with the full knowledge of state agencies. NEMA Kenya remained mute and motionless during those years of deadly delay. NEMA Kenya, you must be held accountable.#JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The metal corrodes not from age, but from years of toxic lead exposure—residue from industrial pollution that was never truly cleaned up. These rusted sheets tell a story of neglect, broken promises, and official silence. Where is @nemakenya?

#OwinoUhuru land must be cleaned. Our community must be restored. And those at NEMA Kenya and Export Processing Zones Authority - Kenya who failed to act—who allowed this poisoning to go unchecked—must be held accountable. Anything less is complicity. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow

Water wells in #OwinoUhuru were declared unsafe, yet the government has offered no alternative for slum residents. Remediation cannot wait a decade. Court orders must be respected—especially by those running state bodies like NEMA Kenya.

Our children live with lead in their blood. Our women have lost pregnancies. Our elders have died slow, quiet deaths. And the same institutions that allowed this to happen, especially the NEMA Kenya and Export Processing Zones Authority - Kenya, have remained mute and motionless. What message does this send?

Lead continues to eat through tin roofs, bones, and blood. How many more must suffer before a court order is treated not as a suggestion, but as the law of the land? The cost of inaction is written in funerals, failing health, and shattered futures. #JusticeNowPayNow

Now that the courts have spoken, they are doing less than nothing. They are burying justice beneath red tape and silence. Why? Because we, the people of #OwinoUhuru are poor? Because we are not from leafy suburbs? Because we are not politically useful? #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The children of #OwinoUhuru have no playground but a poisoned land. They drink water no one else would — rain collected in tanks, but the poison still clings to their roofs. Does NEMA Kenya hear their cries? This is environmental injustice. We demand: #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

Lead eats through tin roofs. It eats through the bodies of young and old. Justice was served—but still, court orders go ignored. How hard is it to obey a ruling meant to end the suffering of #OwinoUhuru? This is not just delay. It’s cruelty. #JusticeNowPayNow #NoMorePollutionKE

Instead of delivering compensation and cleanup as ordered by the court, NEMA Kenya calls the police on environmental defenders. Why is NEMA Kenya so afraid of the truth? Why intimidate instead of implement? We will not be silenced. #EnvironmentalJusticeKE #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The NEMA Kenya letter to the police shows they’ve forgotten their mandate. They were told by the court to protect, compensate, and remediate. Not to intimidate victims and their defenders. We demand justice — not threats. #JusticeNowPayNow #WeAreWatching

One day, the streets of Owino Uhuru may fall silent — not because families have gone on vacation to the beautiful white sandy beaches, but because lead poisoning has claimed more innocent lives. This is the price of systemic failure. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #JusticeNowPayNow

She lives in Owino Uhuru, where justice was won—but not delivered. Lead poisoning continues to take lives. KES 2 billion was ordered by the Supreme Court. No one is obeying it! #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow
