Nairobi, Kenya– The Government of Kenya is set to reinstate the school feeding program in schools across the country, a move revealed by Kiharu MP and Budget Chairperson, Hon. Ndindi Nyoro. This initiative aims to combat hunger and improve educational outcomes for children nationwide.
Hon. Nyoro emphasized the critical role of the feeding program in ensuring that children from vulnerable communities receive adequate nutrition, which is essential for their academic performance and overall well-being. The program’s restoration is part of the government’s broader strategy to support education and promote equal opportunities for all students.
The school feeding program had previously been a cornerstone of Kenya’s efforts to enhance school attendance and retention rates, particularly in rural and marginalized areas. Its reinstatement is expected to have a significant positive impact on student enrollment and performance.
Details regarding the implementation timeline and budget allocation for the program are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
