Kenyan Health Minister Mohamed Duale has been found to have defied a court order to stop construction on a facility intended to house US nationals infected with COVID-19. The development has sparked concerns about the government's handling of the pandemic and its willingness to adhere to the rule of law. The court's ruling comes as a result of a legal challenge brought by local residents who had expressed concerns about the facility's proximity to their homes and the potential risks it poses to public health. The controversy surrounding the facility has raised questions about the government's priorities and its commitment to transparency in the face of a global health crisis.
Health Minister Duale disobeyed an order to halt construction at the proposed facility for infected US nationals, court says.
