In October, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and its employees were granted diplomatic immunity in Keyna, Africa.
Kenya last week granted diplomatic immunity to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and its employees, or “servants,” Tim Schwab reported on Substack.
Under the new status, Bill Gates, his foundation, and its employees were exempt from legal action for acts performed as part of their “official foundation duties.”
They also are exempt from paying taxes on their salaries and given the right to own property in Kenya.
The move came as Gates and his foundation advanced their experiments on Kenyan citizens through vaccinations and food supply manipulation.
Kenya is one of many third-world nations where Gates has been experimenting on powerless peoples before the schemes are rolled out on a global level.
“While nations around the world have long treated Bill Gates as a head of state, it’s now been practically codified into law in Kenya,” wrote Tim Schwab, author of “The Bill Gates Problem: Reckoning with the Myth of the Good Billionaire.”
Schwab said the decision has raised “alarm bells” within the country and across the world.
Through a Freedom of Information Act request, one public advocate has already petitioned the government for documents related to the decision.
Others worry the decision to grant immunity may set a precedent for other billionaire philanthropists.
Concerns also have arisen that other nations will be pressured to follow Kenya’s lead and offer immunity to the Gates Foundation.
The immunity and other benefits are offered to Gates in exchange for continued access to the massive resources the foundation pours into other African countries.
The Government of Kenya’s announcement, Schwab wrote, comes just a week after farmer organizations and religious leaders across the continent called for reparations for the damage the foundation has inflicted on African agriculture through its so-called “green revolution” program.
They say the foundation promotes corporate, industrial agriculture at the expense of local practices and African ecosystems.
However, the High Court of Kenya has struck a critical blow against the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
The court suspended all of the highly controversial legal immunities and privileges recently awarded to the organization in the country.
The scandal has been reported locally but largely ignored by the international corporate media.
The ruling raises important questions about the power and privileges wielded by Gates and other super-wealthy philanthro-globalists operating in developing countries.
The court order was issued by Justice Bahati Mwamuye.
The ruling suspends the “Privileges and Immunities (Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) Order, 2024.”
Justice Mwamuye’s order effectively strips the Gates Foundation, its directors, and agents of various legal shields awarded to them by Kenya’s government.
This comes amidst growing scrutiny of the Foundation’s operations, which many observers say blur the line between altruism and influence-peddling.
After they were awarded, the privileges quickly sparked immediate outrage among Kenyan legal experts and civil society.
The Law Society of Kenya challenged the move in court, asserting it violated Kenya’s Privileges and Immunities Act.
The law organization argued that such legal shields are typically reserved for diplomatic or humanitarian entities, not private foundations.
In doing so, it reflected public concern that the decision to grant these types of immunities had undermined the principles of transparency and accountability and that no entity, regardless of its claimed benevolent goals, should be allowed to operate above the law.
Kenya’s Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, who endorsed the immunities, has attempted to justify the move.
Mudavadi cited the Gates Foundation’s supposed contributions to combating global poverty, disease, and inequality.
However, critics contend that this ignores the significant sway Gates has over governments, particularly in sectors like healthcare and agriculture, where he funds and influences key programs.
The Gates Foundation has similarly tried to defend the arrangement, claiming it aligned with international norms.
However, this has failed to quell the growing unease over Gates and his Kenyan activities.
Much of the Gates Foundation’s investment in African agriculture happens through the Nairobi-based Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA).
The foundation is AGRA’s co-founder and biggest donor.
It has given at least $872 million to the organization, Schwab noted.
AGRA says it “exists to fulfill a vision where Africa can feed itself.”
However, the organization directs its funding to support input-intensive and resource-intensive agriculture.
The alliance promotes the use of synthetic fertilizers and commercial seeds controlled by Big Ag, the restructuring of seed laws to criminalize trading of seeds not certified by Big Ag, and supports seed dealers who promote corporate products.
The foundation has past financial ties to companies like Monsanto (now Bayer), whose seeds it pushed on African farmers.
Gates/AGRA’s practices have long been criticized by human rights and environmental groups in Africa and globally.
And independent research shows that AGRA-supported initiatives have failed.
In some cases, AGRA’s failed experiments have led to increased hunger.
Daniel Maingi, coordinator for the Kenya Food Rights Alliance, warns that Gates was granted diplomatic immunity so that “Kenya becomes the testing ground …
“That is a big, big concern. It’s a big red flag.”
“In terms of food sovereignty, as we give Gates these privileges and immunities, Africa is going to be — not food sovereign, not seed sovereign — we’re going to be slaves and masters of the big corporations,” he added.
Gates’s massive investment in Africa extends beyond agriculture into public health, and more recently, digital IDs in Kenya.
It also includes the “Target Malaria” project, which proposed to end malaria by introducing genetically modified or GMO mosquitoes.
Critics say the program is based on “flawed ecological thinking” and “backed by the same agri-business interests that have devastated agroecological farming systems.”
However, some of Gates’s most wide-reaching investments in Africa, and the global south more broadly, have been in the development and distribution of vaccines.
For example, the Gates Foundation is the topmost funder of polio initiatives worldwide.
In April 2013, Gates said that eradicating polio was his “top priority.”
However, there had only been 19 cases worldwide that entire year.
Since Gates started pushing his polio vaccine agenda in the third world, there has been a global explosion in polio cases.
In 2017 the World Health Organization (WHO) admitted the spike in cases was caused predominantly by a strain that comes from the vaccine itself.
Critics, including many scientists working in low-income settings, have noted that as money is lavished on polio, millions of children are left vulnerable to a slew of often deadly, preventable diseases.
Gates also promoted the use of a dangerous version of the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, or DPT, vaccine in Africa after it was banned in the U.S.
In a video shared widely on X, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. explained Gates’s work in Africa on the DPT vaccines, other vaccines, and his efforts to control farming.
WATCH:
In 2009, the Gates Foundation funded tests of experimental HPV vaccines on 23,000 girls in rural India.
At least 1,200 suffered severe side effects, including autoimmune and fertility disorders and seven died.
Indian government investigations charged that Gates-funded researchers committed pervasive ethical violations: pressuring vulnerable village girls into the trial, bullying parents, forging consent forms, and refusing medical care to the injured girls.
