    "content": "4,885 litres of cooking oil and 9,995 packets of cooking fat; 10,000 pieces of bar soap; 7,406 packets of milk; 14,324 100 grams tin of Milo; 2,781 pieces of shopping baskets; 4,948 gumboots; 354 pieces of reflector jackets and 66,394 pieces of face masks distributed to vulnerable groups in the County of Nairobi. They also distributed free sanitizers. In order to ensure that the distribution of relief food in Nairobi County is effective and efficient, a number of criteria were observed such as: (i) The approval for emergency relief supply by both public and private agencies was centralised and coordinated through respective sub-counties. (ii) Cash transfers through M-PESA and issuance of vouchers were made to the identified vulnerable groups. There was a weekly ration of the repackaged relief food donated by corporate organisations, civil society and well-wishers. It was distributed to cater for all the affected families. The Government has already distributed all the available relief food and has since been emphasising on cash transfer programme. In addition to that, I have been assured that our country is food secure. As such, we should not panic. The Government is keen in ensuring that our economy is up and running almost normally, despite the challenge brought about by the Coronavirus pandemic, in order to ensure that every Kenyan is able to engage in some form of economic activity so that they can earn a decent living. We are also encouraging Kenyans to diversify their economic activities and be more innovative during this difficult time. Thank you"
