Nairobi Steps Up Preparedness Ahead of Expected El Niño Rains - September 2026
Nairobi is enhancing its preparedness as the Kenya Meteorological Department forecasts the arrival of the El Niño phenomenon, which is expected to bring heavy rainfall. As Kenya braces for potential floods and waterborne diseases due to the predicted El Niño rains, the strengthening of sustainable water and sanitation systems is highlighted as crucial for public health and environmental protection. Additionally, Kenya's government is shifting away from uniform fertilizer application due to increasing soil acidity nationwide. A nationwide soil testing initiative has been launched across 45 Kenyan counties with the goal of reducing farming costs and boosting crop yields.
