There are millions of dollars spent by many well-intentioned folks on the Nairobi Slums, as volunteers from around the world come to help. Unfortunately, more drastic measures are needed. In fact, it makes sense to bulldoze the slums in sections and rebuild them with concrete structures.

Of course you start bulldozing slums and everyone has a fit, but if you dont they grow out of control meanwhile as more aid and money comes in so do more people. If something major is not done the humanitarian disaster will continue. Bulldozing sounds mean and cruel, but that is what is needed and it ought to be discussed, there is no other way.

One famous quote that is often uttered in such situations is that; the road to hell is paved with good intentions and to that point in this debate over the Nairobi Slums any trivial talk, committees, band-aid fixes, Political Correctness talk is just silly and more procrastination means more deaths from disease as the slum conditions are a complete environmental catastrophe.

It is time to bulldoze the place and yes that is a harsh call, but drastic measures are needed for such situations. We cannot afford this pretendism that the problem is being fixed, it is not. We cannot allow empathy to run away in our minds or our bleeding heart attitude to over power our reason. One look at the problems that only half and effort does or only treating the symptoms. There will be over 2 million people in Kibera (largest Nairobi Slum) alone by 2010 even with the death rates of HIV/AIDS.
