The government has activated its national contingency plan amid forecasts of El Niño-related risks, including flooding, landslides, drought and disease outbreaks. Head of Public Service Felix Koskei says 18 counties have been prioritised for preparedness measures, as rains begin in several parts of the country. He directed agencies to identify vulnerable areas, position emergency supplies and maintain clear response systems. Koskei also called for safe, accessible exam centres during the ongoing national exam period.
