GENEVA, 27 April, 2021 (TON): Kenya will not shut down Dadaab and Kakuma refugee camps but rather seek solutions, said the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi.

Grandi said, “The government of Kenya is not closing down those camps, the government of Kenya wants to have a solution, they want to see what is the way forward.”

He added, “I think the government of Kenya will continue to provide hospitality, but understandably they want to have a strategy for the future and the discussions continue.”

Grandi is currently visiting DR Cong, Rwanda and Burundi to ascertain the refugee situation in the central African region.

On 8 April, Kenya’s high court suspended the government’s move to shut down two camps that hold hundreds of thousands of refugees from war-torn neighboring countries.

However, Kenya's interior ministry had given the U.N. refugee agency 14 days to come up with a plan for closing the camps, saying that there is no room for further negotiations.
