Nairobi County Governor Johnson Sakaja has donated 700 goats to Muslim families and mosques across the city.

The gesture, he said, is aimed at supporting the Muslim community ahead of Eid al-Adha holiday celebrations that are taking place today.

Speaking at Uhuru Park in the morning during the donation exercise, the Governor said the initiative was meant to stand in solidarity with Muslims as they prepare to mark the important religious occasion.
