Exogenous infection is a bacterial infection that develops from the outside of the body. Exogenous bacteria are foodborne and waterborne which can be consumed directly or through secondary host.
I'm sure there are details of foodborne and waterborne illness that will be specific to Kenya and this sounds like the subject of a research paper. But foodborne illness anywhere can be improved by preventing contamination (which involves the many steps from farm to fork), proper storage to prevent pathogen growth, and proper preparation (including cooking) to remove pathogens that might have hitched a ride. One of the big factors in controlling foodborne illness in Kenya is improving water quality. Even programs encouraging the washing of hands have made improvements. See Related Links.

foodborne illness
Foodborne illness (also foodborne disease and colloquially referred to as food poisoning) is any illness resulting from the consumption of contaminated food. Foodborne illness usually arises from improper handling, preparation, or food storage. Good hygiene practices before, during, and after food preparation can reduce the chances of contracting an illness. There is a general consensus in the public health community that regular hand-washing is one of the most effective defenses against the spread of foodborne illness. The action of monitoring food to ensure that it will not cause foodborne illness is known as food safety. Foodborne disease can also be caused by a large variety of toxins that affect the environment. For foodborne illness caused by chemicals such as pesticides or medicines in food and naturally toxic substances like poisonous mushrooms or reef fish.
