Talking about poverty? Kenya is projected to “make a leap forward” in its efforts to end extreme poverty in the next decade.
A global data enterprise suggested in a post published last week by a US think tank that the share of abjectly poor Kenyans will plummet from nearly 21 per cent today to 4.3 per cent in 2030.
If current trends continue, says the Vienna-based World Data Lab, Kenya will eradicate severe poverty by 2032—two years later than the United Nations' deadline for achieving its top sustainable development goal.More than 70 per cent of the world's poorest people live south of the Sahara today, with that share projected to rise to 87 per cent a decade from now.
Poverty is expected to remain widespread in Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo, World Data Lab forecasts.https://www.theeastafrican.co.ke/news/ea/Kenya-now-on-track-to-end-extreme-poverty/4552908-5066482-20g5ncz/index.htmlGENEGIRIA: 32% of Kenyans live in abject poverty Truly how stvpid do you think kenyans are? stvpid kenyans. stop directing your frustratons at other people ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png)
Poverty forces Kenyans to rent out spouses, children to tourists ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) Husbands love-vendor out their wives, fathers love-vendor out their daughters, poor families rent litle children ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) In Summary •The Kenyan Coast is sitting on a time bomb, with tourists visiting the destination ostensibly to have sex with children. •But child prostitution is not only prevalent but also socially accepted in towns and villages along the Coast. Authorities and charities are struggling to alt the illicit trade. "Why should I make another woman rich yet my wife is jobless?"James Kimani, a tour guide at Kilifi, asked after a tourist asked him to hook him up with a woman for a weekend. Kimani said the tourist was rich. He had seen him sponsor all his five friends on various excursions. He wanted a lady to keep him company during his holiday in Kenya. "After giving it a thought I said, 'Yes I have a nice, bubbly woman. She is dark-skinned, well endowed and naughty. She is my younger sister, very single and well behaved. I can bring her tomorrow," Kamau said. Kamau was describing his wife. They have been married for 10 years. On the evening of August 2018, he went home and made the proposal to the wife. "Honey, the man is German. I will take you tomorrow to him. All I need you to do is act like my sister avoid raising any suspicion and satisfy him fully. Once he pays you, we will need that money to pay school fees for our two children," he said. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) The woman accepted and ever since she has been in business. Her husband hooks her up with rich visitors. She takes home Sh40,000 monthly from the trade. "We still love each other, we are still married and she supports this family. She is the breadwinner," Kamau said. Kamau hooked her up recently with an Austrian man and she has been away from home for two weeks. "All's well. I trust she will come back. The longer she stays the more money she brings home. Meanwhile, am taking care of the children as she hustles," he said. Kilifi county police boss Patrick Okeri said such cases are common. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) He receives cases of women with two husbands, a Kenyan and a European. The women travel abroad to see their European husbands who happen to be their sponsors. When they come back to Kenya they settle with their local husband. "Recently there was a case of a woman with two husbands, a foreigner and a Kenyan. She shares her house with the foreign husband when he comes to Kenya and when he leaves the country her Kenyan husband comes back home, " Okeri said.
Sex tourists prey on minors pimped by own parents in Mtwapa
Offering everything from big game safaris to sandy white beaches, Kenya attracts more than two million visitors annually from the US, Italy, Germany, China, Austria, France and Britain. In 2018, tourist arrivals increased by 37.33 per cent from the previous year to cross the two million mark for the first time, posting significant growth in earnings to Sh157 billion. The latest statistics show there were 2,025,206 tourists arriving compared with 1,474,671 international arrivals in 2017. The gains of the sector were a result of coordinated efforts between various arms of government,Tourism CS Najib Balala said while releasing the data at State House, Mombasa. Tourism is a vital economic pillar providing millions with employment and accounting for about 10 per cent of the country's gross domestic product. But in cities and towns such as Mombasa, Watamu, Diani, Kilifi and Malindi dotted along the coastline, foreign visitors have for years stoked the demand for sex with local young women — and minors. The Star interviewed police, child protection officers, three victims of the sex tourism trade and human rights activists. MINORS Paul Adhuoch, who heads child rights organization Trace Kenya, said 13,000 minors engage in sex tourism in the coastal counties annually. "The lowest age of girls 11 years while for boys it's 13 years. About 60 per cent of the victims are girls." Adhuoch said prostitution has led to an increase in unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases. The latest records highlighted Kilifi as the county with the second-highest percentage of pregnant minors. Other coastal towns have a high prevalence of HIV. "This shows the gravity of child sex tourism," Adhouch said. He said Ukunda, Malindi, Watamu, Mtwapa and Kilifi are hotspots for sex tourism but the trade extends throughout the Coast, including Diani. The main causes of sex tourism are the tourist themselves and poverty. "Tourists are the main drivers — Many of whom are drawn to the Coast by the area's reputation for sex tourism. Poverty is also a major contributor," Adhuoch said.
Mombasa lures sex traffickers and victims Mombasa is Kenya’s biggest human trafficking hotspot, a new report says. The report released in Mombasa on Monday said most victims are lured by ... Counties 1 year ago
HIDDEN SEX TRADE Muslims for Human Rights rapid response officer Francis Auma said rich foreigners own apartments at the Coast, managed by residents. "In those apartments owned by Europeans a lot happens that goes unnoticed. This is where children are molested but the government does not make efforts to monitor these homes," Auma said. Auma said in some cases minors are molested and sold. "At Mtwapa children are sold off to tourists in the evening. The cases are swept under the carpet for the foreigners are rich and can corrupt the system," Auma said. He said Auma said the Tourist police have done little to fight the vice. They give tourists a pass despite having evidence against them. Mtwapa police boss Joseph Muriuki said though the cases are many, few are reported. He said people, especially victims, fear coming out for fear of being victimised by their families, who sometimes depend on them. “We cannot tell if someone is undergoing such torturous acts unless they come out and speak, then the security will act on the information,“ he said. PREY: Children as young as 12 say they are being lured into prostitution and pornography by tourists. Image: COURTESY CHILD VICTIMS Seventeen-year-old Ann Kanini does not mince words when asked why she tours eaches in Malindi, Watamu, Kilifi and Mtwapa. "To look for Mzungu's( Europeans) for transactional sex," she replied giggling over a tot of tequila. "It’s very simple to lure a white man, approach them with compliments designed to break the ice." "The money will begin to flow,” she said, referring to payments once a temporary relationship has begun. “Most village girls do it. I can get Sh3,000 to Sh5,000 a day. Sometimes a tourist will give Sh10,000. ” Kanini said it is important to learn foreign languages especially Italian and German to prosper in the lucrative business. "First, know the language he speaks. Second, tell him he is the most handsome man you have ever seen. For the first time in years, he truly believes he is desirable.” Kanini was in Form 2 in 2017 when her father asked her to drop out in school and help him hustle. "My father was struggling with paying my school fees so when he said he will show me ways to hustle for money,.I was overjoyed, I saw it as a shortcut to success," she recounts. After she quit school, her father (a beach boy) got her a job as a curio seller at Watamu beach. "I was so happy my job entailed approaching tourists along the beach, convincing them to buy cowrie shells and necklaces. I earned between Sh200 and Sh1,000," she said. Her father, however, planned to introduce her to the sex trade. On a Sunday afternoon, as Kanini sold her cowrie shells to tourists at the beach, her father walked up to her. "That Italian man with blue shorts loves you. You have captured his attention," her father said. "Oh, thank you," she said, not understanding his meaning. Her father drew her aside and told her he intended to introduce her to a lucrative business that would earn her Sh5,000 a day. "The business was sex and the deal was I would be assisting in paying water and electricity bills for our house. Then the rest of the money was mine. I trust my father so I gave in to the idea," she said. My father told me not to tell anyone he hooks me up with that he is my father. "He said I refer to him as my good friend. I panicked and was very disgusted when I had sex with the Italian at a cottage. He was the age of my grandfather and couldn't stop coughing and sneezing," she said. The Italian, however, paid her the Sh10,000, more money than she had ever seen. "I had never touched such an amount before. The business was surely lucrative. I abandoned selling of curios to concentrate on selling sex," she said. In a good month, she receives a client every day. Most of the tourists in Malindi , she said, come from Italy and their clients are mostly Italian men between the age of 50 and 80, she said. "My father taught me Italian so it was easy to communicate with the clients he hooked me up with," she said. Kanini learnt German as well and two years later she does not need her father to hook her up anymore. "I can speak foreign languages, I am courageous and approach them for sex," she said. She said the business has led her to build a home for a family in a very short time. "I can't stop selling sex to tourists. I am the breadwinner in our family," she said. PIMPS Local men and women who are well connected are used to visiting poor villages and recruiting minors. "They approach parents and promise them money in exchange of their children," a source said. Most parents readily accept the deal and force their children to have sex with clients in order to earn their school fees. The cartels take the minors to apartments where they hook them up with the tourists. The money is sometimes shared among cartels and their parents, the children get nothing.

GENEGIRIA: Child sex for a dollar on Kenya's palm-fringed beaches ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png)
Sixteen-year-old Fatma doesn't bat an eyelid when asked what she has been doing since dropping out of school two years ago. "Sex," she replied, giggling into the layers of her bright red headscarf. "It's easy to get men. I find them at the market, concerts, weddings and on the beach." "Most girls in my village do it . I can get Sh100 ($1) to Sh500. Sometimes a tourist will give Sh1,000 ($10)." Welcome to Kenya's idyllic palm-fringed beach resort of Diani: where the sands are pearl white, the waters clear turquoise - and you can have sex with a child for a dollar. From Thailand and the Philippines to the Dominican Republic and Brazil, sex tourism is common in developing countries where poverty and discrimination push millions of women into commercial sexual exploitation. Kenya is no different. But the extent to which child prostitution is not only prevalent, but also socially accepted, in towns and villages along the East African nation's coast has left local authorities and charities struggling to halt the illicit trade. According to the latest data available, one in three girls aged between 12 and 18 in Kenya's coastal area is engaged in casual sex work, a 2006 report by the UN children's agency Unicef and the Kenyan government states. That is an estimated 15,000 girls. While these figures date back over a decade, little has improved, say campaigners and government officials. A lack of development, few job opportunities and weak law enforcement has, in fact, allowed the trade to thrive. "It's getting worse. In about 90 percent of families in a village, you will find at least one girl who is a victim of commercial sexual exploitation," said Athuman Jiti, a public administrator in Kwale county, where Diani is located. "Sometimes it's the parents telling them to go out and bring home food, sometimes the girls do it on their own - the problem is, it's highly normalised." FERTILE GROUND Offering everything from big game safaris to sandy white beaches, Kenya attracts more than a million visitors annually from countries such as China, Germany, France and Britain. Tourism is a vital economic pillar, providing millions with employment and accounting for about 10 percent of the country's gross domestic product. But in cities and towns such as Mombasa, Diani, Kilifi and Malindi dotted along the Indian Ocean coastline, foreign and Kenyan visitors have for years stoked demand for sex with young women - and minors. Kwale county - where almost half the population lives on less than $1.50 a day - is fertile ground for exploitation. Deep-rooted sexism ensures deep-seated and daily discrimination, while engrained customs from polygamy to early marriage leave girls and women disproportionately vulnerable. Some children are trafficked from other areas of Kenya expressly for sexual slavery, but most victims are locals who are pushed into the trade more subtly, say campaigners. "Often friends or family members are involved in it and they initiate them into it, or they are approached by a man who gives them attention and a few hundred shillings after sex," said Dorcas Namwaya Mwachi from the Coalition on Violence Against Women, a charity working in communities around Diani. "Their families are poor and cannot afford to look after them, so the girls continue to do it to get money to contribute to the home, or buy themselves small things like a new dress, or even sanitary pads, which they cannot otherwise afford." Many girls know the risks - pregnancy, violence, disease - but without other options, continue to sell sex, Mwachi added. More on this: Also read: COMMUNITY COMPLICITY Even on a weekday evening in off-peak season, the scene at one of the popular tourist nightclubs on the Diani Beach Road is as cliched as it is true. On the dance floor, adolescent girls gyrate to the rhythmic beat of Congolese rumba as two elderly European men in tropical shirts and Bermuda shorts watch on. Within an hour, the men leave with the two girls - both look barely 16. No one raises an eyebrow - not the waiter who collects their bill, nor the bouncers who open the door as they leave, nor the taxi driver waiting outside. Tour operators say it is difficult to crack down as the girls often lie about their age and carry no identification. "The tourism sector has taken some steps to stop child sex tourism, but they tend to find a way around it," said Francis Mkala from the South Coast Association of Local Tour Operators. "The hotels, for example, have a code of conduct banning guests from taking minors to their rooms. But the tourists are now renting out private villas, where they take the children and carry out their business undisturbed." The child sex trade has become so widely accepted that girls no longer just have sex with tourists for money, but also with local men for anything from a ride home to a pair of shoes, or even a bag of sugar, say campaigners and officials. Edward Wanjala, a probation officer in Kwale's Msambweni constituency where Diani is located, says prosecutions are few due to complicity within the community. "Everyone is benefiting in some way - the families get some money from the girls, the bars and nightclubs get customers because of the girls, the taxi drivers get something for taking the customers to the girls," said Wanjala. "The social acceptance means people don't even see it as a crime, and the girls being exploited do not see themselves as victims. So who will report the case? Who will testify?" Raising awareness about the harmful impact of child prostitution is not enough, he admitted, adding that vocational training and jobs were needed to curb trade. Eighteen-year-old Saumu, who began selling sex at 15, holds out little hope of a better future: she has a 3-year-old son from one client, and is eight months pregnant by another. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png)

Don't be ignorant. There are no arabs in Kenya hinterlands. They live along the coast. Kenya tea industry consist of small holder farmers numbering 0.5M. It also consist of handful multinationals with plantation like Uniliver. So think about your cocoa industry - cocoa smallholders farms (0.8M) - and the Nestle large farms. I think Cocoa farming in Ghana is good example of successfully rural smallholder farming in Africa - Just like Kenya tea sector. Don't wear ignorance like a badge of honor. O.8M cocoa farmers in Ghana - representing 60% of all farmers - earn 2.6B dollars from cocoa industry - and while 0.5M kenyans earn 1.5B from selling black tea. Just30: so all your shouting

In Kenya a lot of people use which are made out of clay which are fired. 70% of the houses in Kenya is made out of bricks. That is why cement consumption is very low. Clay consumption in Kenya is very high compared to cement consumption.

rvp20182: Yes, start by explaining the methodology for electricity access in Ghana.I know for example in some countries like India if you live some metres from electricity pole they consider you have electricity access.How many household are connected to you two power supply companies? We saw in Nigeria about 7.5m are connected..with only about half a metered..in country with about 40m households but they will claim 50% electricity acess.Kenya power have 8m metered household connections in country of 11.5m people. In Ghana all households are connected and metered even in the villages and they receive 24/7 electricity unless maintenance outage or power has to be shut down because of a storm. the only parts of Ghana that are not connected yet are overseas villages. when we say 90% of our country is connected we mean 90% is connected and the power is available to them. no house gets connected without meter. |
