NAIROBI, Sept. 14 (Xinhua) -- Bent at the waist and with the morning breeze stroking her face, Roselyn Ochieng went about sweeping her serene neighborhood, a volunteer work she has enjoyed performing for more than a year.

At 70 years old, Ochieng could be relaxing at home enjoying her retirement benefits, but the senior citizen has devoted ample time to maintaining a clean environment in her middle-income suburb located on the eastern parts of the Kenyan capital, Nairobi.
