Public opposition to the construction of an airstrip in the Upper Imenti Forest Reserve in Meru County is intensifying, with calls to halt the project growing louder.
Conservation groups, community leaders and environmental advocates have united in demanding an immediate stop, warning that the development threatens biodiversity and undermines forest protection efforts.
The latest appeal comes from Rhino Ark Kenya Charitable Trust, a conservation organisation focused on protecting Kenya’s mountain forest ecosystems through electric fencing, community partnerships and sustainable resource management.
