A House committee wants President William Ruto to rescind his decision to lift the ban on logging, even as it casts doubt on claims that one billion trees had already been planted out of the target of 15 billion.

The National Assembly’s Environment committee said that the Executive Order lifting the ban on logging “had done more harm to existing forests” and urged the President to rescind his decision.
