THAT, aware that the Country has since independence named and renamed roads to honour heroes and heroines who have contributed immensely to the development of the Republic; noting that the naming of roads and other public places after heroes and heroines bestows honor and shows gratitude; deeply concerned that there are heroines and heroes who haven’t had similar honors bestowed upon them despite their immense contributions to this Country; recognizing that road names have been changed before to reflect names and places with significance to Kenyans e.g. Sadler Street was renamed Koinange Street and Lord Delamere Avenue renamed Kenyatta Avenue, Government Avenue to Moi Avenue amongst others, this Assembly resolves that the Nairobi County Government rename Limuru Road to Wangari Maathai Road in recognition of the late Prof. Wangari Maathai’s valiant efforts in Environmental conservation in Kenya and beyond.
