UN Food Agency to Double Aid to Kenya

The United Nations has announced its World Food Program will more double its current aid to Kenya, increasing its food relief to 3.5 million people in the drought-stricken country.

 

Kenya has been devastated by the current drought and the majority of the population is unable to afford the ever increasing price of food. While the drought has taken a serious toll on the farm lands many of those fields were have been left untilled as a result of political violence associated with last year’s political violence.

 

That violence chased thousands away from their lands before they were able to plant their crops and now the country is facing a catastrophic food shortage that has left many malnourished and on the brink of starvation.
