I called it as it was, & was castigated. Apparently that prepared song was a lie after all? Thread... @ajfactual52 @YussufMwinyi @BasilioCC @karingithiii @WanjikuRevolt @VictorMwambacha @RasnaWarah @kirigwi @Hitlerlaw2 @mlimakenya @alaminkimathi @chothep

Preparedness is the ability for all to prepare for, withstand, & recover from public health incidents in both the short & long term. It requires chief amongst them the right mindset top down, policies, arrangements & resources. What COVID-19 became in Kenya is a gravy train.
With the unspoken way things are, how then do we engage in preparedness activities that address the access & functional needs of community as well as cultural, socioeconomic, National stubbornness, ignorance & demographic factors ? @Ibrahimjohnny @johnnjenga @SimbaTirima
Then there is the question of recovery & the ability to identify critical assets, facilities, & other services within public health, emergency mgmt, human services, mental/behavioral & environmental health sectors that can guide and prioritize recovery operations? @mlimakenya
Long story short, we are caught between a rock & a hard place. Which unless the we change some of our ujuaji & fala mangaa ways. We are doomed....@modhiambos @milliciachris @threadreaderapp unroll

Govt MUST recognise the terror threat is enduring & requires sustained mitigation efforts. An intelligence-led, risk informed approach to develop adequate levels of protective security for Kenya's Critical Infrastructure-CI is a MUST. Thread.@ajfactual52 standardmedia.co.ke/north-eastern/…
For starters, at the national level, CI must be legally defined.
When we talk of Critical Infrastructure what exactly are we be referring to ? @RasnaWarah @VictorMwambacha @BasilioCC @chothep @Hitlerlaw2 @WaNduta8 @ParassisO @modhiambos @milliciachris @mlimakenya @OderoProf
In our case CI is simply, ‘Physical facilities, supply chains, technologies & networks which, if destroyed, or rendered unavailable, would significantly impact Kenya's social or economic wellbeing or affect our ability to conduct national defence & ensure national security’.

@NMS_Kenya @StateHouseKenya CBD infrastructure tickling is visible, lets go invisible, its slow onset & devastating aftermaths in Mukurus that make the Metropolis. Thread.@ajfactual52 @RasnaWarah @BasilioCC @chothep @mlimakenya @Hitlerlaw2 @Ibrahimjohnny @johnnjenga @SimbaTirima
Every year, Nairobi faces devastating losses caused by both man-made & natural disasters. Fires, floods, building collapses, road carnage, various other hazards & associated consequences that have significant impacts on communities, the economy, infrastructure & environment.
Over the past decade, there has been zero tangible efforts of collaboration on reforming Disaster Risk Mgmt approaches as it's spearheading by the National Disaster Operation Center-NDOC, died an unprecedented death. @Anon1KENYA @WaNduta8 @Hitlerlaw2 @ChesoliProtus @NairobiJiji

@KenyaGovernors Preparedness? Yes it is a continuous phase in DRM, but that bus zoomed past us, are we not more in the response phase & doing a rather shoddy job ? Thread... @gathara @ajfactual52 @YussufMwinyi @RasnaWarah @JerotichSeii @VictorMwambacha

In DRM, preparedness, is simply arrangements to ensure that, should an emergency occur, all those resources & services which are needed to cope with the effects can be efficiently mobilised & deployed. Can we truthfully use that term & Counties in the same sentence? @BasilioCC
It therefore denotes measures to ensure that, should an emergency occur, communities, resources & services are capable of coping with the effects. In the case of COVID-19 how are the Counties faring at it, even with the Billions ? @Ibrahimjohnny @SimbaTirima @johnnjenga
