The High Court has declined to stop Nairobi City County’s Sh1.2 billon primary school feeding programme initiated by Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.
On Thursday, Justice Mugure Thande said that although the constitutionality of the ‘Dishi Na County’ programme has been challenged, the best interest of the child should prevail. She said the constitutionality of the programme can be interrogated at the petition hearing.
