First Lady Rachael Ruto speaks at Kachororoni Primary School in Ganze sub-county during the distribution of milk to learners at Kachororoni and Gandini Primary Schools in Kilifi county on Thursday, July 3, 2025.
A visit meant to celebrate progress in the fight against hunger laid bare the harsh realities facing residents of Ganze, Kilifi County, where First Lady Rachel Ruto’s flagship kitchen gardening initiative is being undermined by a persistent water crisis.
As Mrs Ruto toured the region to promote her Feed One, End Hunger programme, she was met with pleas from residents and school leaders who said that without reliable access to water, the well-intentioned project is at risk of failing.
