Rising Food Prices Hit Nairobi Slums


According to a global survey by the UN, the price of meat, dairy products and some cereals all rose last month.

The survey also found that an estimated third of Kenyans living in urban areas are chronically malnourished. Al Jazeera's Peter Greste reports from Kibera slum in Kenya's capital Nairobi.
