Kenya - Alert Out as 10,000 Face Starvation

An estimated 10,000 people in parts of Kinango constituency, Kwale, urgently need food assistance.
The semi-arid area has been ravaged by drought for the past three years.
Area residents survive on roots and wild fruits.
Their MP, Mr Gonzi Rai, and Mackinnon Road ward representative Musa Ahmed have urged the government to intervene.
Mr Ahmed said hardest-hit areas are Vigurungani, Makamini, Taru, Chengoni, Samburu, Chigutu, Malomani and Ndavaya.
“The situation is bad. We are calling for immediate intervention. People are now feeding on mtunguru (roots) and matopole (wild fruits) to survive,” he said in Mombasa.
