Anti-smoking laws for Nairobi
Over the last week or so, the City Council has unleashed a number of by-laws prohibiting among other things, smoking in public places otherwise not designated to be smoking places.
The Council has designated few public open spots to be smoking places.
Such as the one above at one corner of Jeevanjee Gardens.
You will now find smokers huddled over the small designated smoking area, doing what they do best.
Smokers are now demanding that the Council puts up shelters on the open spaces, so that they can smoke without being rained upon.
Can't they see the Council's motive? To discourage smoking under any circumstances? BAT, having grossed 7Billion Kenya shillings in the last six months, as well as other tobacco companies, must surely be furious!
