We, the Baboon Project Kenya (BPK), have filed a legal petition at the high court of Kenya in the Environment and Land division ELCPET 004/2024 under certificate of urgency because we are deeply concerned about the ongoing pollution of Lake Nakuru National Park due to sewerage discharge from the County Government of Nakuru. This park is not just a place of beauty and natural wonder, it is a sanctuary for critically endangered Rhinos and an important bird area. It holds high international conservation status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Ramsar site.
The pollution caused by sewage discharge threatens to irreversibly damage this unique ecosystem, endangering its rich biodiversity. The park's critical role in conservation cannot be overstated - it serves as a safe haven for many species that cannot survive elsewhere.
We believe that it is our responsibility, both locally and globally, to protect this precious environment for future generations. The County Government of Nakuru must take immediate action to stop the sewerage discharge into Lake Nakuru National Park.
We urge you all to join us in calling on the authorities to halt this harmful practice immediately. By signing this petition, you are taking a stand against environmental degradation and helping safeguard one of Kenya's most treasured national parks for future generations.
