Kenya Government Fighting Vaccine Hesitancy
Kenya has increased its fully vaccinated population against COVID-19 to 19%, but nomadic herders remain a challenging group to reach.

This initiative aims to boost vaccination rates among hard-to-reach populations.

Kenyan Hockey Team Says Olympic Hopes Dashed by Lack of Support
Kenya's ice hockey team, the Ice Lions, has been unable to train on ice for two years due to the closure of the region's only ice rink amid the coronavirus pandemic and a lack of financial support. The team, which trains in a Nairobi parking lot, expressed disappointment at missing the Beijing Winter Olympics. The Ice Lions' captain, Ben Azegere, highlighted the challenges of promoting hockey in Kenya, while NOCK's secretary general, Francis Mutuku, acknowledged the prohibitive costs of participating in the Winter Games for a tropical country like Kenya.

Kenyan Slum Dwellers Evicted for China-Built Nairobi Expressway
Tens of thousands of squatters in Nairobi's Mukuru Kwa Njenga slum were evicted to make way for the Chinese-backed Nairobi Expressway, leaving many homeless and living in makeshift tents. Rights groups and residents criticize the Kenyan government for failing to provide adequate resettlement and compensation. The expressway, built by China Road and Bridge Corporation, aims to ease traffic but has been labeled a 'road for the rich.' President Uhuru Kenyatta defends the project, while activists highlight the trauma and insecurity faced by the evicted families.
