Seizure of Sh3.6b drug haul in Msambweni puts Coast trafficking routes in focus

Story

The seizure of 454kg of suspected methamphetamine worth Sh3.6 billion in Kwale has renewed concerns over Kenya’s Coast as a major drug-trafficking transit route.

A multi-agency operation on the Coast has seized 454 kilogrammes of suspected methamphetamine worth Sh3.6 billion, putting Kenya back in the spotlight as a transit point for international drug syndicates. The latest seizure comes a year after similar drugs worth Sh8.2 billion were seized near the Kenyan Coast in October 2025.
