Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) is taking measures to recover the fortunes of Lake Nakuru National Park that once raised Sh1 billion in revenues yearly.

The agency’s Director General John Waweru, while launching the Rapid Results Initiative, said the measures they were taking include upgrading infrastructure within the park and demolishing submerged structures.
