NAIROBI - Most of Patrick ‘Moreno’ Osunda’s neighbors curse when the rains make the latrines overflow. For him, it’s the smell of money.
“It has helped reduce the number of people using flying toilets,” said Pascal Kipkemboi, a community co-ordinator in Kibera.But while the charities tend to use sewage trucks - nicknamed “honeysuckers” - to empty their pits, some privately-run toilets rely on men like Osunda. Then he empties it into a tributary of the Nairobi River, which meanders through tree-lined neighborhoods before traversing the khaki-colored plains of Tsavo National Park and emptying into the Indian Ocean.
Osunda has never been sick in his 30 years of work, he said proudly. Charities once gave his three-man crew gumboots, gloves and overalls. But the equipment wore out and the foreigners went home, so these days he buys the gloves himself.
