Parents sell children as Kenya's sex tourism normalizes exploitation

by Lilian Muendo

\Malindi, Kenya — Along the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, leaving footprints on Kenya's white sandy beaches, aging white men and women stroll arm in arm with local girls and boys young enough to be their grandchildren. They are retired tourists, many of whom are drawn to the Kenyan coast by the area's reputation as a haven for sex tourism — especially with children.

Though Thailand is the most well-known sex tourism hub, Kenya's coast is rapidly becoming a popular destination for people looking for underage prostitutes. A UNICEF study found that as many as 30 percent of girls aged 12-18 in Kenya's coastal areas are involved in some form of sex work. UNICEF also estimates that among Kenyans' sex workers, one in 10 began before reaching puberty.

The coastal area has a high incidence of child sexual exploitation due to widespread poverty and society's acceptance of the phenomenon.

"Abject poverty here is painfu ;Dl," said Sr. Matilda Baanuo, a Missionary Sister of Our Lady of Africa and the coordinator at Pope Francis Rescue Center, a residential and counseling center for victims of sexual exploitation in Malindi. [Read Global Sisters Report's previous coverage of the Pope Francis Rescue Center.]

In 2011, almost 70 percent of the 1.1 million people in the district around Malindi live on less than a dollar a day, the poverty level established by the World Bank at that time.

Sex work, including for children, is seen as an acceptable means of earning a living in coastal Kenya. To parents and relatives, a child with a white tourist as a girlfriend or boyfriend is the fastest way to get the family out of poverty. Young girls and boys are encouraged by their families to look for tourists who will cater to family needs. This means families will purposefully keep the children out of school to free them to search the beaches for "work."

chai, what is survival sex? poor, hungry and desperate, foolish kenyans will do anything, including survival sex

Food Insecurity, Poverty Force Kenyan Girls Into 'Survival Sex'
By Salem Solomon

WASHINGTON - Women and girls as young as 12 from Kenya's countryside are being forced into sex work to families affected by prolonged drought. They have little or no education and travel at least 50 kilometers (30 miles) to reach urban areas, working in unsafe conditions far from their homes.

“Since I was raped, I entered into prostitution, because I saw that is something that my family depends on,” a 24-year-old mother told the International Rescue Committee (IRC). “It is not something good, but the need to care for these children is what forces me, because I don't have anywhere else to run to,” the woman said.

The IRC has been working in Turkana, a region in northwestern Kenya with over 276,000 people in need of food assistance. Turkana, which borders both Uganda and South Sudan, also suffers from Kenya's second-highest HIV infection rate, according to Mercy Lwambi, the women's protection and empowerment manager for IRC.

The impact of drought on rural communities such as those in Turkana's countryside can be particularly harsh. In addition to soaring food prices, rural families face decimated livestock and diminished crops. With grim prospects for survival and a dire need for money, young girls find themselves in early marriages, child labor and forced prostitution.

Rampant abuse

As crippling drought lingers, survival sex, in particular, has proliferated. Child sex workers in Turkana make, on average, about 50 shillings, or less than 50 cents, per client. But it's not uncommon for no payment to be made or for money to be stolen from the girls.

“Most of the time, their clients steal the little money they give them. So, their clients pay them for the work, then beat them up or take the money, or their clients intoxicate them with alcohol and have sex without pay,” Lwambi said.

Without a system, girls trapped in sex work face the constant risk of beatings, psychological abuse and sexually transmitted diseases, particularly HIV.

In addition to prostitution, the IRC has also documented an uptick in gender-based violence and the rape of children, underscoring how humanitarian crises disproportionately affect girls.

The recently released 2019 Global Hunger Index shows that millions of Kenyans are going hungry and that the country suffers from serious levels of hunger. Eunice Njogu shares her insights into the causes, and what can be done.

How serious is the problem of hunger in Kenya?

Kenya has a population of 46 million people. According to the Kenya Institute for Public Policy Research Analysis, 14.5 million of these Kenyans face food insecurity and poor nutrition each year. When looking at extreme cases, last year 2.6 million Kenyans were said to be in a food insecurity “crisis”.

“Food insecurity” is when people lack enough money, or resources, to ensure they can eat. Hunger – which can be a short-term physical discomfort or a life-threatening situation – is a possible outcome of food insecurity.

Last year Kenya was ranked 86th out of 117 qualifying countries on the 2019 Global Hunger Index. This classifies the country’s situation as “serious”.

According to the World Food Programme, the people who are most vulnerable to food scarcity in Kenya live in dry areas, which cover about 80% of the country. Food insecure families typically live in rural areas, are poor and depend on farming for income.

Children are the demographic group most vulnerable to hunger. This is because their growing bodies are more vulnerable to other problems hunger causes; for instance about 29% of children in rural areas and 20% of those living in cities have stunted growth, a sign of significant vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Kenyan Bishops Ask God to Help Fight Corruption

Kenyan Catholic bishops are seeking divine intervention in the battle against corruption, urging citizens to turn to God with a specially crafted anti-graft prayer.

Kenyan BishopsKenyan Bishops pray barefoot against corruption. (Photo: The Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB))“Father in heaven, You always provide for all your creatures, so that they may live as You have always willed. You have blessed our country Kenya with rich human and natural resources to be used in honour and glory and for the well being of every Kenyan,” the prayer, released on Thursday starts.

“We are deeply sorrowful for the wrong use of these your gifts and blessings through the act of corruption, as a result of which many of our people are hungry, sick, homeless and displaced, ignorant and defenceless. Father, You alone can heal us of this sickness which leads to death,” the prayer continues.

The move is part of a six-months-long campaign the bishops launched in October, aimed at ending corruption in the African country, Vatican News reported.

The outlet added that Kenya’s economy is barely surviving the widespread practice of bribery, massive theft of public funds, ineffective judiciary resulting in diminished incomes in ordinary households and small businesses, unemployment, and distrust of potential foreign investors.

According to Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index, Kenya ranks 144th on a list of 180 countries - with number 1 being perceived as the least corrupt.

Symbolically kneeling and praying barefoot before an altar, each holding a cross in a hand, the bishops each read and signed the commitment “to work tirelessly to fight the evil of corruption in Kenya,” the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB) said in a statement marking the beginning of the anti-graft campaign.

“We humbly beg You, touch our lives and those of our leaders so that we may realise the evil of corruption and work hard to eliminate it. For any citizen who has acquired anything through corrupt means, Lord, give him or her, the spirit of courage to make a restitution and come back to You,” the prayer they wrote begged.

As part of their campaign, the bishops, according to the CatholicUniverse, also banned all donations by politicians, declaring that the churches across the country will be receiving donations only electronically or via cheques.

“Our churches will not be used as political platforms or for any other motive other than for the worship of God,” the KCCB said.

“Raise up for us God-fearing citizens and leaders who care for us and who will lead us in the path of peace, justice, prosperity, progress and above all, Love.

Kenya: With No Food, Woman Boils Stones To Make Kids Believe She’s Preparing Meal
Tired of her child crying out of hunger, a mother in Kenya boiled stones in utensils to reassure them that she was cooking food for them.

Kenya: Woman boils stones thinking her child would sleep waiting for food

Tired of her children crying out of hunger, a mother in Kenya boiled stones in utensils to reassure them that she was cooking food for them. The heartbreaking incident happened in Mombasa where Peninah Bahati Kitsao put water along with a few stones thinking that her children would sleep while waiting for the food. Spilling details of the tragedy, Kitsao reportedly said that it was only her youngest born who was crying and that her elder children had understood when she told them they had food no food.



According to international media reports, Kitsao is an illiterate widow, who worked as a washerwoman. However, as coronavirus pandemic intensified, people started observing social distancing and her job became redundant. Later, her neighbour Prisca Momanvi, who saw the tragic scene of poverty, informed the media and also opened a bank for her. As the story spread, more and more people came forward to help and she started receiving money.

Kitsao, who lives in a two-bedroom house without any electricity or water while speaking to international media reports, said that receiving help from fellow Kenyans was nothing less a "miracle". She added that she couldn’t believe that people could be so “loving.” She also revealed that since the incident, she had been receiving phone calls from across the nation from people who are asking how to help.

More Kenyans are still starving, Hunger report shows

By Jael Mboga | March 13th 2020 at 01:38:25 GMT +0300


A Global Hunger Index report shows Kenya's food security is worsening.

The 2019 GHI report states that government efforts to ensure nutrition and food security by 2022 have not been enough.

Kenya was ranked 86 out of the 117 countries reviewed.

However, in 2018, the study showed the country still has “serious levels of hunger” with a ranking of 77 out of 119 countries.
The revelation coincided with the revelation by then Agriculture CS Mwangi Kiunjuri who disclosed that over Sh8 billion worth of maize may have gone bad in the National Cereals and Produce Board stores.

The revelation was a smack on the face of the Jubilee Government that put up measures to promote food security.

Food security is part of President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Big Four agenda which includes affordable housing, universal healthcare and manufacturing.

The report indicates that for every three Kenyans, one is grappling with severe food insecurity and poor nutrition.

Governor reaches out to locals and diaspora to feed starving families


Kiambu governor of Dr. James Nyoro has called on more well-wishers to donate towards those who have been adversely affected after losing their livelihoods to Covid -19.

He urged them to donate either food or items that could be used to contain the infections either in homes or in institutions that have been earmarked for isolation.

Dr. Nyoro revealed that a committee was liaising with people living in the diaspora so that they too could come on board and participate in ‘adoption’ of villages so as to cushion those who were affected by the pandemic

The governor made these remarks Thursday at his office when he received donations from at least 15 companies operating in Kiambu County amounting to Sh6.5 million.

Dr. Nyoro noted that since the pandemic hit Kenya in March this year, it had affected many families and called on those who could afford to donate towards cushioning them from starvation.

He noted that the Kiambu County Covid-19 Response committee was doing a splendid job of mobilizing resources and relief which would go a long way to alleviate the suffering of the people.

The Governor explained that his committee had come up with a temporary solution through which food worth Sh2, 500 could take a family of four for a whole month.

“The logistics sub-committee has done their mathematics and come up with that figure and I call upon one person to adopt a village and volunteer to feed like 10 families which would amount to Sh25, 000 or any amount that they could afford.

He said if they could do so and continue until the infections were contained, they would have adopted those families through an organised way thus helping to show kindness through the resources that God had blessed them with,” said Governor Nyoro.

The governor told the meeting that owing to the proximity of Kiambu to Nairobi, cases of Covid were going up very fast and more so following the opening the economy by the President on Monday.

“More people are going for the compliance certificate so that they may resume their businesses and this has resulted into the numbers of new infections going up,” he noted.

The Governor also attributed the increase in infected cases to the presence of multinationals operating in Kiambu saying they should be tested as they resumed engaging in business.

He said Tigoni, which has been designated as the Kiambu Covid-19 centre, has a bed capacity of 226 with 28 patients so far while the level 5 hospitals of Kiambu, Gatundu and Thika had a capacity of 102 beds.

He said the County has capacity for isolation of 500 beds and called on people to adhere to the health protocols to avoid contracting the virus which was expensive to treat.

Wangige hospital with a bed capacity of 100 beds has also been reserved for Covid 19 patients, making the county compliant to the 300 bed capacity for Covid-19 patients.

Among the special donations that the governor received were 5 ICU beds already installed at the Tigoni hospital from Tilisi Construction Company and 5 spraying pumps to be used for fumigation which were donated by Hardi Kenya, a company situated in Tatu city, Ruiru.

Pure rubbish talk Ghana is doing fine on all fronts. The Ghanaian economy is growing very well. Today, your generator-powered economy is in recession

Even with the border closure, Nigerians are desperately sneaking into Ghana too much suffering in that zoo they can’t wait fir the borders to reopen

Nigeria has cities? Which cities? Common ordinary electricity you can’t produce? A city without electricity is not a city, it is a slum which means the whole Nigeria is a sluminic zoo

Respect yourself, okay? Can you compare your illiterate cow rearing lifeless President to an Oxford trained international lawyer? While the Ghana President is leading his country into economic prosperity, your president has taken your country into recession Today, Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world

Roan7:


The jealousy of ghanaians, because they have no highrise buildings, and the excuses for it to cover up their shames is that accra is not allowed for some height of buildings,
No wonder you were so pained and jealous of Nigeria Eko Atlantic project, saying it's not another city in Lagos, but inside Lagos city, and you said Nigerians want to claim having 3 world class cities, lol
For your information, Nigeria will not only have 3 world class cities, we are having multiply world class cities coming up, and it will pain you die.
It's not Nigeria fault that ghana has no city, and has no new city coming up, so deal with it, don't blame it on us.
But why can't ghana have a proper city, considering the resources you all got?
And yes, everyone knows accra is a dwarf city, just like ghanaians are dwarf, and yes, i will say it, accra is a dwarf city with 4 office tall buildings along airport city road, but you can't say that about Lagos, nor Abuja, so just digest that bitter truth first.
And our skyline is far far better than anything in ghana, and that's a bitter fact.
No wonder your dwarf president lifted Nairobi of 1980 as ghana 2050 vision, beyond aid.

Sharaaap! Nigerian men are the most laziest mudder fuggerz in the world nigerians are generally very lazy

what happened to the ground nut pillars in your country? every month, these lazy mudder fuggerz will carry their lazy azzes to Abuja, collect their monthly oil money and go and spend I guess that is “working hard” the nigerian way

Ghanaians are xenophobic? You are mad

Roan7:


Dude, your diaspora are also know as fraud, don't come here and be saying that you are well received all over the world, who do you think you are lying to?
What's happening to your citizens in UK? What are they known for? Hun?
Your men are so lazy that they rely on their women to do everything for them, and give them money and also feed them, and pay bills, your women controls you, you have no say in ghana, because your women are the most successful people in ghana, all you men do is to jealous, and envy other black foreigners, and later you call South Africans xenophobia, ghana and hypocrite is just inseparable.

Hahahahaha sheer madness a certified sh1thole in recession, the poverty capital of the world, calling a progressive country like Ghana ash1thole? Wonders shall never end meanwhile, even with the border closure and lockdowns, Nigerians are planning to relocate to Ghana

Graysons:
I ask you again who give a fvck about shlthole country like Ghana? or are you a Ghanaian?

I don't give a damn what shlit hole country like Ghana think about Nigerians Ok?

Frankly your lack of intelligence is laughable typical brain-dead mudder fugger with a redundant brain when will you guys have sense?

lol...you need to bring your cedis to Nigeria first before you understand fully what I'm saying...hell you could be another ignorant Ghanaian (you'll be ing the long line of them though...nothing surprising) who hasn't left Kumasi in his life.

nigga I'm talking based on first hand information and experience.
the naira has more value than the cedi so whether a cedi to naira is .0005 to 8000 the Naira is still valuable!
why do you think Nigerians are plenty in Ghana?
you think Ghana is the land of 'flowing milk and honey' ??
No bro!...far from it!
Nigerian business men have just seen a place to get hard currency with some form of semblance to the dollar to remit back home...simple!

the money they make in Ghana does A LOT IN NIGERIA but can barely afford anything in Ghana!

your currency is playing you people HARRRRD!

OPEN YOUR EYES FAM!
and also I'm not trolling you, I'm just telling you to always resist that urge to latch on the naira vs cedi exchange rate pov.

it always ends in tears.


wow....very Rich analysis from our ghanaian Moody's representative!

boy when you troll Nigeria with your 'generator powered economy' tag please highlight how big that economy is.


and lastly, there is no country that wouldn't feel the covid-19 crunch...the US lost over 20million jobs in 3 months nigga!!!

or is Ghana immune to the global economic slowdown?
