Kenya has recently come under scrutiny due to concerns about human trafficking.
Of particular concern is the trafficking of Chinese nationals working in the country, which has raised significant alarm. The 2024 Trafficking in Persons Report, released by the US State Department, highlights instances of forced labor among Chinese workers in Kenya. These workers are primarily involved in various infrastructure projects including those affiliated with China's Belt and Road Initiative. The report emphasizes the vulnerability of Chinese nationals to forced labor, particularly in the construction sector.
To address this issue, the Kenyan government has been urged to implement proactive measures for identifying trafficking victims. The proposed screening process would extend not only to Chinese nationals but also to other foreign workers and Kenyans returning from overseas. By systematically identifying vulnerable populations, such as refugees, asylum-seekers, individuals in commercial sex, and migrant workers, the aim is to detect cases of trafficking and take appropriate action against perpetrators.
Despite recent efforts by the Kenyan government to combat human trafficking, the country continues to face significant challenges. Child trafficking and sex trafficking remain major issues. In 2023, the government reported prosecuting 19 trafficking cases encompassing both sex trafficking and labour trafficking. Three traffickers were convicted of forced labor, with two receiving prison sentences and one being acquitted.
While attention has focused on Chinese nationals within Kenya, it is crucial to recognize that Kenyans themselves face risks when working abroad. For instance, Kenyans deployed to Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia continue to experience mistreatment and harassment.

Meg Whitman is wealthy and can pay her own way. Ruto, not that is a thief and a conman and his trips were paid for by people who most have a motive.
That woman needs to be recalled for,
1. Gallivanting all over the world with thieves from Nairobi--NOT part of her job
2. Smiling too much around looters of public funds
3. Endangering the lives of US Congressman
4. Bringing GREAT Embarrassment to the American people
5. Repeating talking points that Nairobi conmen use to lie to koinange prostitutes such as Kenya will be Singapore. When did she become a Clande?
The list of misconduct is very long
RUTO MUST GO
MEG WHITMAN MUST GO
The US is trying like heck to wedge out Chinese infrastructure developments influence in Africa. Based on my observations, we are better off doing business with the Chinese instead of the West. They are a lesser devil.
Sad to hear such but secret society in high places of government, corporations, security, Hollywood are deep in trafficking of adults and children. DC politicians who don't want to retire but chose to die in office are luciferians.
Where was the US government when Meg Whitman and william Ruto were busy gallivanting around the world with looted taxpayer funds like brand new lovers?
Wezi kabisa.
Ruto and Meg Whitman MUST GO!
Ruto &
