Dear farmers before you introduce new goats or sheep into your farm kindly ensure you have dewormed and vaccinated them against some diseases such as CCPP, PPR, Enterotoximea/Clostridial diseases among others. Also seek professional vet advise. This farmer lost more than 60 goats
If you allow the state to break the law during an emergency, it will create emergencies to break the laws.
Ebola is NOT a Kenyan problem today.. don't let him make it one.
@KwagalaKassanda@izzoh_w@iixFrank@USForeignAssist You're a charity organization depending on donors to help you out that's why you're yapping all over. We are not beggars like you trying to impress the west to get free money
My fave Kenyanism word: Rada? Depending on the context it could mean WTF? It could mean “seriously?”. It could mean “what’s up?”. It could mean “the hell’s wrong with you?” And you can understand it by the tone someone uses when saying it, and I find it so beautiful.

Early this morning, Amboseli National Park, Kenya - and indeed the world - lost a true icon. Craig, the legendary super tusker famed for its immense, ground-sweeping tusks and calm, dignified presence, passed on at the age of 54.
Born in January 1972 to the great matriarch Cassandra of the CB family, Craig lived a life that few elephants ever do.
Craig was one of the last remaining super tuskers in Africa - a rare class of bull elephants whose two tusks weigh over 45 kilograms (100 lbs) each. Fewer than a handful remain today, making him a living monument to Africa’s natural heritage.
He fathered a number of calves, ensuring that his powerful bloodline and gentle character live on across generations.
Beyond its extraordinary tusks, Craig was deeply loved for its remarkably calm nature. He appeared to understand its place in the world - often pausing patiently as visitors photographed and filmed him. Widely documented and admired globally, he became a true ambassador of Amboseli and a symbol of what successful conservation looks like.
In 2021, Craig was proudly adopted by East African Breweries Limited (EABL) through the Tusker brand, reflecting his worldwide appeal. His long life and survival to such maturity were made possible through decades of dedicated protection by Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), working in close collaboration with conservation partners and the local community.
Continuous monitoring, anti-poaching efforts, habitat protection, and community stewardship ensured that Craig lived freely and safely - demonstrating what collective commitment to wildlife conservation can achieve.

The East Coast Fever (ECF) Vaccinators Training was successfully conducted at VSRI from 9th–11th December, bringing together participants for an intensive, hands-on learning experience aimed at strengthening ECF control in the field.
Over the three days, trainees were taken through key areas including the background of ECF, Infection and Treatment Method (ITM) immunization, the economic impact of the disease, and proper vaccine handling and storage. They also had an opportunity to tour various laboratories—among them the Hematology Lab—to deepen their understanding of diagnostic and research processes essential for disease management.
The programme also featured a practical farm visit to Kamuguga, where trainees applied their newly acquired knowledge in real farm conditions. The training concluded with the awarding of certificates, marking an important milestone for all participants.
We celebrate the dedication of all trainees and their commitment to improving animal health and supporting farmers across the country
