Kenya Grants Diplomatic Immunity to Gates Foundation Under Privileges and Immunity Act Amid Health Practices Controversy
Oct 24, 2024, 05:00 AM
The Kenyan government has granted special diplomatic status to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, allowing its expatriate officials certain privileges and immunity under the Privileges and Immunity Act. This decision has sparked controversy, with some critics questioning the need for such immunity and raising concerns about the foundation's activities in the country. Allegations have surfaced regarding the foundation's involvement in health initiatives, particularly in western Kenya, where some claim that pregnant women are being subjected to questionable medical practices linked to the foundation. The Ministry of Health's role in these matters has also come under scrutiny, as citizens express their apprehensions about the implications of granting immunity to a foreign organization.
