A more traceable livestock sector is a stronger livestock sector. 🐄📍

Today in Isiolo, ANITRAC was rolled out by CS Sen. Hon. Mutahi Kagwe and PS Hon. Jonathan Mueke, strengthening animal identification and traceability across Kenya’s livestock value chain.

Better traceability means stronger animal health, safer products, and improved market access.

CS KAGWE WARNS ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE COULD LOCK KENYA OUT OF GLOBAL MEAT MARKETS

CS Sen. Mutahi Kagwe has warned that antimicrobial resistance (AMR), driven by the misuse of veterinary medicines, poses a serious threat to public health and could shut Kenya out of lucrative global meat markets.

Speaking at the opening of the Kenya Meat Conference 2026 in Nyeri, CS Kagwe said AMR is no longer just a veterinary issue but a national economic, food security and public health challenge.

He noted that global estimates link AMR to about 5.5 million deaths annually, with Kenya among the countries significantly affected.

"Responsible use of veterinary medicines is becoming a passport to international markets," he said, warning that failure to meet international standards on antimicrobial residues could undo years of market access negotiations.

To strengthen compliance, the Government is reinforcing the Kenya Veterinary Board and the Veterinary Medicines Directorate to ensure veterinary medicines remain under the supervision of licensed professionals.

The CS said the Government is implementing wide-ranging livestock sector reforms, including the National Livestock Vaccination Programme, increased investment in the Kenya Veterinary Vaccines Production Institute - KEVEVAPI to raise annual vaccine production from 45M to over 70M doses, and the rollout of the Livestock Identification and Traceability System (LITS) alongside the Animal Identification and Traceability System (ANITRAC).

He said modern consumers demand traceability, food safety and transparency, adding that these are now essential requirements for international trade. CS Kagwe also condemned illegal donkey slaughter, describing it as a threat to food safety, public health and Kenya's export ambitions.

Despite the 2020 ban on commercial donkey slaughter, he said illegal operations continue, with over 700 donkeys reportedly slaughtered every month. He directed his Ministry to strengthen policy and enforcement measures against those involved.

On value addition, the Cabinet Secretary urged greater investment in modern meat processing, branding and certification to maximize returns from the livestock sector.

He said the Government is working with county governments and private investors to modernize abattoirs and expand export-ready processing capacity.

The Government aims to increase livestock's contribution to GDP from 12% to 20% and nearly double annual meat production to about 990,000 metric tonnes by 2028, generating an estimated KSh450 billion annually.

CS Kagwe called for stronger collaboration among government, counties, researchers, financial institutions and the private sector to position Kenya as Africa's leading exporter of safe, traceable and high-quality meat products.

The two-day conference has brought together leaders from across the livestock value chain to discuss strategies for growing Kenya's meat industry and expanding access to international markets.

Among attendees were PSs @jmueke, Caroline Karugu, @GovernorKahiga, Gov. @Nathif_J_Adam among other state officials.

🚨MIT researchers have mathematically proven that ChatGPT’s built-in sycophancy creates a phenomenon they call “delusional spiraling.”

You ask it something, it agrees. You ask again, and it agrees even harder until you end up believing things that are flat-out false and you can’t tell it’s happening.

The model is literally trained on human feedback that rewards agreement.

Real-world fallout includes one man who spent 300 hours convinced he invented a world-changing math formula, and a UCSF psychiatrist who hospitalized 12 patients for chatbot-linked psychosis in a single year.
