Ketamine Scare Near Nairobi School: Ice Cream Contamination Investigated

Nairobi School Parents Alarmed as Ketamine Found Near Makini; Ice Cream Contamination Suspected Nairobi, Kenya – May 16, 2025 – Parents of students at Makini School in Nairobi are on high alert following the discovery of a discarded Ketamine Hydrochloride injection near the school. The discovery was made by Geoffrey Mosiria, a Chief Environment Officer with Nairobi City County, who responded to parental complaints. Parents reported that their children had consumed ice cream purchased from nearby vendors and subsequently exhibited concerning symptoms. "Ketamine is a highly regulated drug," stated Mosiria in a recent video documenting his investigation. "It's never supposed to be sold over the counter, regardless of the amount of money involved." The video shows Mosiria holding the recovered Ketamine vial and the letter from the school. He visited several vendors, warning them about the serious consequences of selling drugs to students. Mosiria's video highlights the urgent need for increased vigilance and collaboration between parents, schools, and local authorities to protect children from such dangers. The incident underscores the ongoing challenge of drug abuse and the need for community-wide efforts to address it.
