"In 2015, Wakibia started a social media campaign, using the Twitter hashtag #banplasticsKE, to call for a ban on plastics, with a focus on bags. The campaign soon won the support of Kenya’s Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Natural Resources, Judi Wakhungu, and things snowballed from there.
Wakibia has since been credited with starting the movement that led to Kenya’s nationwide ban on single-use plastic bags, which took effect in 2017." - unenvironment.org -
