Inside Kenyatta National Hospital's Ward 1E, where children battle cancer, the most powerful medicine isn't always in a syringe. Sometimes, it's a paintbrush. The result is not just beautiful paintings, but a restored will to fight and a practical way to clear hospital bills

In 1976, as rescuers pulled bodies from the wreckage of one of Kenya's deadliest train accidents in Kathekani, a newborn in Mombasa was fighting for her life in surgery. That child, Dr Nafisa Khanbai, would grow up to defy every limitation placed before her. Today, she uses theatre to spark conversations about inclusion, dignity, and love for people living with disabilities.

In Nation Podcast's Unbroken Wings, Jurgen Nambeka talks to Nafisa about transforming pain into art, and how her story continues to lift others to believe they too can fly beyond limits.

In this episode of the Newsroom Podcast hosted by NTV's Ngina Kirori, NMG's former Group Editorial Director Wangethi Mwangi and Nation Weekend News Editor Patrick Langat reflect on Raila Odinga as a newsmaker and how coverage of the former Prime Minister has evolved over time. The discussion comes in the wake of Odinga's death earlier today while receiving treatment in India, marking the end of a political era that shaped Kenya's democracy for decades.

explores the hidden toll of Female Genital Schistosomiasis on women in Homa Bay

County, Kenya. Through the story of Loza, and insights from a neglected tropical

vulnerable women in endemic areas. This is not just a health issue; it is a matter of

justice.

The article highlights the challenges faced by women with albinism in Kenya due to increased ultraviolet (UV) radiation amid climate change.
