On Thursday, he promised to prioritize feeding programme for learners across Nairobi, especially those in public schools.

He said this is in a bid to increase school attendance and boost nutrition levels of the learners.

“We have been piloting the project in a few schools in Nairobi and have seen attendance in school go up by 100 per cent while performance has also improved by over 60 per cent,” Sakaja said.

He welcomed the partnership with the World Food Programme under Her Royal Highness Princess Sarah Zeid of Jordan in supporting the feeding programme and increasing nutrition.
