"Dog food" offer for hungry children insults Kenya
afrol News, 3 February - A New Zealand company producing dog food has offered its products to aid starving children in Kenya. The producer maintains her special nutritious dry food mix is fit for human consumption, but Kenyans are offended and outraged by the offer. Government officials and aid organisations have rejected the offered 42 tonnes of "dog food".
The peculiar offer started with an innocent holiday stay of a young "Kiwi" woman in Kenya, where the ongoing drought and hunger left a deep impression. Back in North Canterbury in New Zealand and with a determination to take action, she contacted a friend, dog food producer Christine Drummond, who also was moved by the tales of hunger. They came up with the idea of shipping 42 tonnes of dried dog food to Kenya's starving children
