Last update: 9 hours ago

Ebola Response Backlash: Laikipia County has asked the High Court to stop a US-backed Ebola quarantine, monitoring and treatment facility at the Laikipia Air Base, warning of risks to schoolchildren, tourism and residents after protests turned violent. Child Protection Alarm: MPs are demanding urgent action over a surge in missing children cases, citing fears of trafficking, abduction and exploitation and calling for faster tracing and better coordination across agencies. Public Health Supply Chain: KEMSA will close its Nairobi and regional distribution centres for five days (July 6–10) for stock-take, with only emergency deliveries handled. Digital Economy Boost: Kenya secured €102m (Sh15.37bn) in EU funding for digital transformation and connectivity, plus €37m for the Blue Raman cable extension to cut costs and deepen regional links. Satellite Internet Race: Amazon has applied for a Kenya licence to build a satellite ground station, moving to compete directly with Starlink in Africa’s fast-growing broadband market. Jobs & Recruitment: Transport, SHA and EACC announced mass recruitment with 260 vacancies across roles from engineering to drivers and security, applications due by June 30. Trade & Investment Push: Ruto’s Brussels engagements delivered EU deals and renewed calls for value addition, while Belgian investors signalled interest in Kenya’s renewables, minerals and agribusiness. Governance in Focus: The High Court upheld Rigathi Gachagua’s impeachment, while awarding Sh50m damages over rights violations, setting up a likely appeal.
