Volunteers in Nairobi’s "Green Army" are taking proactive steps to mitigate flooding risks ahead of the anticipated El Niño weather pattern, which has historically brought heavy rains and water surges to the flood-prone city. The initiative focuses on clearing drainage systems and reinforcing vulnerable areas to reduce potential damage as officials brace for the seasonal challenges. With past El Niño events causing significant disruptions, local efforts aim to minimize the impact on communities already at risk. Residents and authorities are closely watching as preparations unfold before the expected onset of the phenomenon.
