Kenya reportedly struggles with 51,000 metric tonnes of electronic waste each year and only 17% of it gets recycled.

Nairobi residents have found a solution to tackle the world's fastest-growing domestic waste, turning the used electronics into a business opportunity, which has also proven to be good for the environment.

For example, Godwin Ochieng is one of many people who makes a living by collecting electronic waste from dumpsites in Nairobi. He then repairs the salvageable items and resells them.
