Your graph is not telling us anything at all because it is targeted testing. It's like entering a matatu and doing a survey to find out how many people use matatus compared to other modes of transport.

Or can you kindly interpret for us what the graph means

It shows a trend or rather growth rate of infections.
 
Travel in and out of Mandera restricted from 7pm this evening.
No exemptions during Ramadhan, measures in place to remain in effect.

This graph shows absolutely nothing!!!!
If they want to get growth rate of infections they should do random sampling.
Go to Eastleigh and test 1,000 random people today.
Three days later go there again and test 1,000 random people
After another three days go there and test 1,000 random people.

If you do random sampling the graph will keep on going up and down. It will be showing you whether infection is increasing or reducing.
This one for Kenya will be permanently increasing.

Why do you need to sample when you have the real data? The graphs clearly shows a rapidly growing rate of infection. If we continue at this rate, how many people will be infected by next week?

Very wrong. The real data is the 45 million Kenyans. But since they cannot test everyone, they should do random testing.

The graph doesn't show rapidly growing infection rate. It just shows that they have managed to get 303 cases.

If we continue with this mode of testing, prepare to be locked up until they finish testing every kenyan.

This is the blunder US did the first few weeks till people started complaining that Covid 19 testing is being done only on NBA stars

If they stopped testing for a week, the graph wouldn't go do because there wouldn't be data/ facts collected.
