 Kenya orders closure of small-scale businesses owned by foreigners Kenyan President William Ruto ordered authorities to begin shutting down small businesses operated by foreign nationals from Monday, Sept. 7, saying hawking and small-scale retail should be reserved for Kenyans. Speaking to micro, small and medium enterprise traders at State House in Nairobi, Ruto said Kenya welcomes foreign investment but argued that foreigners should not compete with citizens in businesses requiring little capital. "From next week, all traders doing those small businesses should close them," Ruto said, Anadolu Agency reported. "We have made efforts to improve the economy, we have not improved investor confidence for hawkers to come to Kenya," he added. ‘Prioritising Kenyan citizens’ Ruto said the government would push ahead with legislation aimed at defining areas of economic activity that should prioritise Kenyan citizens.

NORTHERN NIGERIA HUNGER REACHES WORST LEVELS IN NEARLY A DECADE, WFP SAYS. (PHOTO).

 Northern Nigeria hunger reaches worst levels in nearly a decade, WFP says


More than 17 million people across nine conflict-hit states in northern Nigeria face severe hunger, the U.N. food ​agency said on Thursday, warning that violence and funding ‌cuts are driving food insecurity to its worst level in nearly a decade.


The latest food security analysis showed the number of people facing crisis, ​emergency or catastrophic hunger had risen by almost two ​million from previous projections, the World Food Programme (WFP) said ⁠in a statement, Reuters reported.


The findings underline the deepening humanitarian cost of insecurity in Africa’s most populous country, where Islamist insurgents in the northeast and armed gangs in parts of the north have displaced communities, kept farmers from their fields and restricted aid access.


Borno state, the epicentre of a long-running Islamist insurgency, ‌has ⁠more than 3 million people who are acutely food insecure, including more than 750,000 facing severe hunger conditions, WFP said.


WFP said it ​can only ⁠support fewer than half of the 1.3 million people it was able to assist last year in three northeast states, where ⁠6.2 ​million are food insecure.


The agency said it ​needs $89 million over the next six months to maintain food, nutrition and logistics ​support across northern Nigeria.
