Lake Victoria Basin Commission bets on bamboo trees to restore Osipata Gulley in Busia

Jackline Amadi, head of programme Eco Green Kenya said, "We are glad to be part of this restoration exercise because hundreds of people in this Osipata community have suffered a lot and that is why we have moved up with speed to plant bamboo. So far, we have planted 10,000 bamboos and we are still planning to do more."

Irene Majale, the Environment Officer Directorate of Environment in Busia County described bamboo as a potential game-changer to restore tree cover in the gulley.

"We are committed as a county to restoring this degraded site and enlightening the community on the importance of planting bamboo," she said.

St Peter's Osipata Primary and junior secondary headteacher Rosalia Ojoya praised the initiative. Her institution is one of the many schools stakeholders are targeting as part of the restoration exercise.

"As a school, we appreciate this initiative. It will help improve environmental protection and also provide us with adequate shade," she noted.
