Kenya stands to reap potential benefits after Tanzania's Professor Mohamed Janabi was nominated as the next Regional Director for the World Health Organisation Regional Office for Africa (WHO/AFRO).
Janabi's nomination was confirmed on Sunday, May 18, during a special session of the WHO Regional Committee for Africa held in Geneva, Switzerland.
His nomination was imminent, especially because he was specifically fronted for the influential role by the Tanzanian government.
The seasoned cardiologist is now set to serve a five-year term in his new role between 2025 and 2030.
