The government is set to launch a nationwide crackdown on shisha, Health Principal Secretary Mary Muthoni has announced.
The crackdown will also target products that are not properly labelled, particularly concerning the effects they have on the user.
According to PS Muthoni, the Ministry of Health is concerned about the sale and consumption of these products by not only the primary consumers but also secondary consumers, putting both groups at risk.
The government in 2017 imposed a comprehensive ban on shisha, prohibiting its use, importation, manufacture, sale, promotion, and distribution.
