The Kenya Prisons Service (KPS) has boosted President William Ruto’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by making available 2.1 million seedlings.

President Ruto launched a tree restoration programme at Ngong Hills Forest on December 21 to kick-start the plan of planting 15 billion trees by 2032 to grow Kenya’s cover from less than 10 percent to around 30 percent.
