flag Kenya sets 30-year goal to become first-world nation amid HIV surge and health challenges.

flag Kenya aims to become a first-world nation within 30 years, President William Ruto said, citing economic recovery, infrastructure projects like the Rironi-Nakuru-Mau summit expressway, and improved health and education. flag The new highway, part of a broader push for regional trade and logistics, features dual carriageways, smart systems, and safety enhancements. flag Meanwhile, Nairobi recorded over 3,000 new HIV cases in 2024, a 19% rise, with young people aged 15–34 most affected. flag Health officials link the surge to low testing, limited prevention access, and high rates of sexual and gender-based violence. flag In response, a national HIV awareness half-marathon promoted testing, PrEP, and prevention. flag Despite progress—72% drop in new infections since 2005—challenges remain, including low condom supply, rising mother-to-child transmission, and increasing AIDS-related deaths.
