Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. All praises is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds - The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, Sovereign of the Day of Recompose. It is You we worship and You we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path - the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked (Your) anger or of those who are astray. Ameen.

Kenya is one of the world’s leading safari destinations. It is where you could experience a close encounters with the Big Five; African lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, black and white species of rhinoceros and the African leopard.

It is the house to the second highest mountain in Africa. Mount Kenya is the highest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest (after Mt Kilimanjaro) in Africa.

Kenya is also known as the country of languages. There are 68 different languages spoken in Kenya. The official language is Swahili.

Despite these promising and positive image of Kenya, it still calls the world for help. Poverty is still a problem in Kenya. Things that are consider basic, such as healthcare, education, clean water and sanitation to many countries, are luxuries for many living in Kenya. But why??

Longstanding corruption within Kenya’s government such as bribery, fraud, and tribal favoritism is one of the leading causes of continuing poverty in Kenya, as problems such as these hinder attempts at reform and positive change.

Another reason why Kenya is and remains poor is because its population relies on agriculture to make a living. Yet Kenya’s erratic weather and arid climate make it a very unstable living to rely on.

If I could summarise the other causes of poverty in Kenya, among them are Unemployment and low wages, Landlessness, Lack of roads/inadequate roads and Gender imbalance and vulnerability.

Thus, let's help our brothers and sisters to help them raise their standard of living. We might think that what we are doing are little for them but to them it is a huge contribution that could leave them speechless.
