Amnesty International Kenya, Executive Director @irunguhoughton joined the #OwinoUhuru community and @CJGEA in the Environmental and Land Mombasa Court this morning. The community seeks @NEMA to demonstrate that it has cleaned up the toxic lead waste dumped in their community between 2006 and 2014.

The @compensationke Panel and #OwinoUhuru Community comes up before the @Kenyajudiciary, Tuesday and Monday. What’s at stake for this community’s right of redress and compensation and the nation’s right to a clean and healthy environment? It’s been 12 years since Metal Refinery Ltd poured toxic lead poisoning into the Changamwe community. irunguhoughton.org/post/keny… or standardmedia.co.ke/opinion/… #StandardSettingKE #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow

.@phyllis_omido never meant to be an environmental hero, but in 2007, her baby fell gravely ill from lead poisoning linked to her factory job near Mombasa. She quit, rallied her community, and founded the Center for Justice, Governance and Environmental Action. #FuturePerfect25 vox.com/future-perfect/46923…

#OwinoUhuru deserves unity, truth, and justice—not division and deceit. @NemaKenya must stop sabotaging victims and immediately begin fulfilling its legal and moral obligations. Anything less is complicity in injustice. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow

The clock is ticking. Each day, Owino Uhuru victims suffer while @NemaKenya @AGOfficeKenya @epzakenya boast of “growth.” Development built on poisoned lives is not progress—it is betrayal! #JusticeForOwinoUhuru #NoMorePollutionKe #justicenowpaynow

The lives of Owino Uhuru cannot be sacrificed for “industrial growth.” @NemaKenya @AGOfficeKenya @epzakenya — true development puts people before profit, justice before neglect. The victims are taxpaying citizens. Prioritize their health and dignity. #JusticeForOwinoUhuru

The cloud of death looms over #OwinoUhuru. Here, life is reduced to a daily struggle for survival. Children continue to suffer from lead poisoning. Instead of delivering justice to the victims, the @AGOfficeKenya perfected the art of delay. #justicenowpaynow

At Cjgea KE, we do not whisper when injustice roars—we speak out for those who cannot. We will not relent until truth and justice are delivered to the victims of #OwinoUhuru. Injustices unfold. Too often, the victims are silenced and abandoned. We refuse to let that happen.

Victims of #Owinouhuru are Kenyans whose rights are guaranteed by the Constitution and by international human rights conventions that Kenya has signed. Will Kenya live up to its promises on environmental justice, or whether the victims will continue to be treated as expendable?

Justice is not a favour; it is a constitutional right. Dear Solicitor General, The residents of #Owinouhuru deserve justice, dignity, and healing—not more empty promises.
