"mi djica lenu dzukla janai klama"= "I like the event of (If I go, then
I walk)"  Which is what you want.  (I like walking everywhere) 

 Iff you put in a kei after dzukla, closing off the NU, then the "le nu
dzukla" would be the left-hand-side of the "janai", and the "klama"
would be the right:
"mi djica lenu dzukla kei janai klama" => "If I go, then I like to
walk."  Which is subtly different.  It means if you stay put, then we
don't know if you like walking or not.


"I like to walk, or I don't like to go" would be either
 mi djica le nu dzukla .ijanai mi djica le nu klama

or 

mi djica le nu dzukla .anai le nu klama

or 

mi djica ga le nu dzukla ginai le nu klama
