Finally, It would have been advisable to reference sources beyond the BBC & especially progressive Kenyan media. Also the referenced BBC article explains why Kenyan farmers have reservations about the livestock vaccines including low trust of the government. Your summary doesn't highlight that.

Yoruba imperialism with a dash of supremacy at its finest. However, the nuances of this issue isn’t what a news story would do justice.
