The US government has claimed that the International Finance Corporation (IFC) tried to cover up reports of child s-3-x abuse at Kenya’s Bridge International Academies when investigations against the low-cost private school chain began.
The IFC is the World Bank’s private investment wing. The World Bank held a $13 million (Sh1.75 billion) stake in Bridge from 2013 to 2022.
The investigative report disclosed on March 14 confirmed numerous incidents of child s-3x-ua-l abuse between 2013 and 2020 at schools in Kenya run by Bridge leading to IFC divesting in the schools.
