Kenya: Mining and Blue Economy Cabinet Secretary Hassan Ali Joho has ordered the closure of the Simba Cement plant in Kilifi County due to pollution concerns. Residents have reported issues from stone blasting and dust, with one resident reporting that early morning blasting has caused ‘cracks’ in their house and exposed families to respiratory diseases, according to the Kenyan Post newspaper. It was also reported that the company has allegedly displaced residents to expand its mining operations.
