Daniel Kanja remembers the 14 hours he spent at a top Nairobi hospital when his wife was in labour with their first child.

"Fatherhood is sweet," he says. "To be called a dad and have the responsibility of bringing a child to the world and care for it must rank as one of the best privileges any man can have."
