New GMO Laboratory to Be Constructed at the Directorate of Veterinary Services, Kabete

The National Biosafety Authority (NBA) plans to build its headquarters at the Directorate of Veterinary Services in Kabete. This site will also host a Regional Reference Molecular Laboratory.

The Authority’s Acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr. Nehemia Ngetich, stated that the headquarters will also have a demonstration field for approved genetically modified crops.

“This is a big milestone, considering NBA has been renting office spaces. Renting has posed a challenge in establishing a permanent molecular lab for GMO detection and other molecular tests,” Ngetich said during the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Directorate of Veterinary Services Director Dr. Allan Azengelle.

Prof. Jenesio Kinyamario, Chairperson of the NBA Board of Directors, also attended the event. Other attendees included board member Mohamed Hussein, and Directors Moses Sande, Dr. Ann Karimi, and Josphat Muchiri. Dr. Azengelle welcomed the MoU, emphasizing its significance for the institution’s mandate.

Additionally, the Authority is tasked with public awareness to educate Kenyans on GMO foods, including regulatory safeguards and informed consumer choice.

The Authority has published four regulations: Biosafety (Contained Use) Regulations, 2011; Biosafety (Import, Export and Transit) Regulations, 2011; Biosafety (Environmental Release) Regulations, 2011; and Biosafety (Labeling) Regulations, 2012.

NBA’s role aligns with the government’s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), focusing on agricultural transformation, inclusive growth, and transforming the MSMEs economy.

Some of the Authority’s achievements include developing and publishing necessary Biosafety regulations. The NBA has a strong legal and institutional framework to regulate GMOs and their derived products, ensuring the safety of human and animal health, and environmental protection.

The new GMO Testing Laboratory, serving the region, was commissioned in June 2022 at the NACOSTI Building, where the NBA headquarters are currently located.

Kenya is a member of the international community and a signatory to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, a multilateral environmental agreement that aims to ensure a sufficient level of protection in the safe transfer, handling, and use of GMOs and their derived products.

  178. More to come… Grateful for Nigerian government support & cooperation.” However, U.S. Africa Command, which oversees U.S. military operations in Africa, said in a statement that its “initial
    assessment is that multiple ISIS terrorists were killed in the
    ISIS camps.” Mr. Trump did not provide further details on the strikes, such as how many people were killed, who or what was specifically targeted, or how many strikes were carried out, other than to say they were “numerous perfect strikes.” U.S. forces likely would have to be drawn from other parts of the world for any larger-scale military intervention in Nigeria.
    The company skipped that step — sending safety cards for GPT-4.1 — claiming in a statement to TechCrunch that “GPT-4.1 is not
    a frontier model, so there won’t be a separate system card released for it.” OpenAI leaders have been talking about allowing the open model to link up with OpenAI’s cloud-hosted models to improve its ability to respond to intricate questions, two sources familiar with the situation told TechCrunch. OpenAI has added a few features to its ChatGPT search, its web search tool in ChatGPT, to give users an improved online shopping experience. Over the weekend, users on social media criticized the new model for making ChatGPT too validating and agreeable. OpenAI for Countries is part of efforts to support the company’s expansion of its AI data center Project Stargate to new locations outside the U.S., per Bloomberg. The AI startup will work with governments to assist with increasing data center capacity and customizing OpenAI’s products to meet specific language and local needs.
