This week, Amnesty International hosted a comprehensive training for civil society representatives in Wajir to deepen their understanding of Kenya’s Data Protection Act. The initiative seeks to bridge the awareness gap, particularly in remote and marginalised areas.

Fuel stations across Wajir town have resumed operations following a high-level meeting convened by Wajir Governor Ahmed Abdullahi to address security concerns raised by fuel dealers.

The meeting, held on Thursday, brought together representatives of fuel dealers and the county security team, led by the County Commissioner. It followed a strike and the closure of fuel stations due to a series of burglaries that had disrupted business operations.
