Kenya | Dissatisfied with economic benefits, local officials want to switch Tsavo NP to game reserve

Taita Taveta County has started plans to convert Tsavo National Park into a game reserve in an effort to increase its revenue.

Speaking in Wundanyi, Governor Granton Samboja said he would lead county leaders, including members of the county assembly (MCAs), to move across the 20 wards to collect more than 250,000 signatures to petition Senate and President Uhuru Kenyatta on the move.
