Geoffrey Mosiria

Geoffrey Omatoke Mosiria is an employee of the County Government of Nairobi. Currently, Mosiria is the Chief Officer of Environment in Nairobi. He rose to prominence via his TikTok presence, which showcased his passion for a cleaner and noise-free environment. He has also been praised for his work in the health sector when he was the chief officer of health facilities. Mosiria has championed better healthcare services through partnerships with Temple Dental Welcomes International Visitors to push for improvement in student learning and better patient care.  

In 2014, Mosiria graduated from the University of Nairobi with a bachelor’s degree in commerce. He later pursued a Master’s in Business Administration with a specialisation in Finance and Financial Service Management, which he completed in 2022. He is currently pursuing a post-doctorate degree.

With a proactive approach, Mosiria has been at the forefront of the pursuit of a clean environment, especially in Nairobi. Upon receipt of formal complaints from residents in Nairobi County, he has shown up to assist in cleaning efforts. For example, he has assisted in the collection of illegally dumped vegetable waste at Kangemi Market. Illegal dumping has caused the rotting of vegetable waste, which has resulted in a foul smell along Waiyaki Way.  At times, he receives complaints from residents over noise pollution caused by clubs and churches as well. On October 8, 2024, he joined the residents of Madaraka in protests over noise pollution caused by the re-opened 1824 club.  Though met with hostility, he has shown resilience in his quest for a green and clean Nairobi.  He has also called out roadside restaurants that have failed to meet the health codes and licenses.

In other activities, Mosiria is a staunch practising Christian, as seen on his social media platforms. However, this has not dissuaded him from calling out churches that set up their sound systems in a manner likely to cause noise pollution. For example, on October 5, 2024, he received complaints from residents living near a church in Nairobi. The residents stated that they had tried to negotiate with church officials to lower their volume, but they were met with insults.

In 2023, due to his exemplary leadership, he was elected the Nairobi Representative for the Abagusii Community. During a ceremony that brought together church leaders from diverse denominations and county workers, Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja heaped praise on Mosiria. The praise was not only for his work pushing for better healthcare facilities for hospitals in Nairobi but also for his efforts in his environment docket.
