AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Ebola Response Clash: Kenya’s High Court has suspended a US plan to open a 50-bed Ebola quarantine facility for Americans at Laikipia Air Base, blocking the government from admitting anyone exposed or infected under the deal while a case is heard on June 2, as medical workers and rights groups warn of public health and constitutional risks. Public Health Measures: Kenya says it has intensified Ebola surveillance and screening at 26 entry points, with over 58,000 travelers checked so far and all suspected cases testing negative, while 17 isolation centres are readied. School Fire Probe: Police arrested eight girls at Utumishi Girls Academy in Gilgil over the suspected arson of a dormitory fire that killed 16 and injured 79, with investigators citing safety breaches like overcrowding and a locked exit door. Aviation Pressure: Airlines and aviation bodies warn Finance Bill 2026 could raise costs by removing key tax exemptions, arguing it may push aircraft leasing and maintenance business out of Kenya. Economy Watch: Kenya’s inflation jumped to 6.7% in May, driven largely by fuel-led transport and household price rises. Regional Security: Kenya and Rwanda signed a new MoU in Kigali to deepen police cooperation on transnational crime and small-arms trafficking. Sports: Shujaa’s Sevens campaign at Valladolid hit a wall as South Africa beat them 14-0, leaving Kenya needing a win in their final group match.
