On a sunny day in August 2019, a group of residents from Mombasa's coastal city came together to clean up their neighborhoods, marking the beginning of a grassroots revolution in the county's local politics.
The Alpha Group, a people-driven initiative, has been making waves in Mombasa by bringing together locals from Changamwe, Likoni, and Nyali to tackle community issues without relying on elected leaders.
With a focus on finding local solutions to local problems, The Alpha Group has won the hearts of many, with a growing number of people joining the outfit in droves.
As the county's residents take matters into their own hands, it remains to be seen whether this new approach will be the catalyst for change Mombasa needs.
