Nearly 6,000 Kenyans lost their jobs over the last three years as companies struggled to keep up with the changing economic climate.

According to the Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE), 5,567 Kenyans were declared redundant in the past 3 years.

However, that number is likely higher with FKE only tracking those losing jobs among its members.

This comes as the living standards of employed Kenyans deteriorate under President William Ruto's regime, according to the organisation.
