Embu: MCAs seek funds to address malnutrition

Assembly members have asked the county health department to allocate money to be used to tackle malnutrition.

Nominated MCA Susan Ndwiga cited a report by County Nutrition Co-ordinator Kevin Muli, which said 40.9 per cent of children in Mbeere North and Mbeere South sub-counties were stunted, while Manyatta and Runyenjes have 23 per cent each.

She was speaking at Kavutiri AIPCA church in a forum organised by Grace Africa.
