More than half of people living at the Kenyan borders and other African nations have seen their incomes decline in the past two years, worsening their ability to meet basic needs amid high levels of poverty, unemployment and illiteracy.
A report by United Nations Development Programme and Africa Borderlands Centre shows three in five people representing 58 per cent living in borderlands have recorded a decline in incomes on the back of lower earnings with the majority taking home less than $65 (Sh7,991) per month.
