Ababu Namwamba has officially started working as Kenya's man at the United Nations Office in Nairobi. He wants to make the UN stronger across Africa and help regular Kenyans feel its impact. The diplomat already met with UNON boss Zainab Hawa Bangura after presenting his credentials. He also talked with staff members from Kenya's mission there.

Namwamba brags about his previous job successes in sports - ending FIFA's ban on Kenyan football, bringing major tournaments to East Africa, developing young talent, and fixing up sports facilities. He promises to bring the same magic touch to his new role through hard work, teamwork, and careful attention to detail. President Ruto picked him for this job last December, with Parliament giving the thumbs-up in January after checking his background.

Nairobi stands tall as one of just four UN headquarters worldwide, alongside New York, Geneva, and Vienna—making it the only African UN base. The Nairobi office handles 86 UN agencies across 166 countries and has the largest buildings of all global UN offices. As home to UNEP and UN-Habitat programs, Nairobi serves as the environmental capital of the planet.
