CS Duale to appear before senators over tobacco warning labels
Health CS Aden Duale will meet the Senate Committee on Delegated Legislation to deliberate on the graphic health warnings for tobacco products at 11 am, Bunge Towers
The warnings, which feature approved pictures and pictograms, will be required on all tobacco product packaging.
The intervention aims to increase public awareness of the serious health risks associated with tobacco use, deter tobacco consumption, particularly among the youth, and protect non-smokers and other vulnerable populations from the harms of second-hand smoke.
The graphic health warnings come as part of Kenya’s ongoing efforts to align with the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), which calls for measures to reduce tobacco consumption globally.
CS Chirchir to appear before senators over Wilson Airport status
Transport CS Davis Chirchir will appear before the Senate committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing over the status of Wilson Airport at 11 am, Bunge Towers.
There have been growing fears that high-rise buildings near Wilson Airport in Nairobi are posing a significant threat to aviation safety.
The encroachment of these structures into flight paths, particularly along the southern edge of the airport, is said to create dangerous conditions for pilots during takeoff and landing.
Aviation experts are warning that these obstructions could lead to accidents, particularly during poor visibility or emergency situations.
