Kenya has received
about 30,000 metric tonnes of wheat from Ukraine to help families affected by
drought and famine.
The donation is part of Ukraine's humanitarian programme. Deputy
President Rigathi Gachagua, who received the shipment, said the donation will
go to at least 5.4 million Kenyans who are facing starvation.
The UN's World Food Programme has supported the delivery. The donation
has also been financed by several countries including Norway, Belgium, Italy,
the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom.
The programme has delivered more than 140,000 tonnes of wheat to African
nations since November 2022.
