Few human metapneumovirus coding-complete genomes are available from Africa despite significance in optimizing local molecular diagnostics and global phylogeographic analysis. We report eight genomes recovered following nanopore metagenomic sequencing of samples collected in coastal Kenya (2021-2024). These fell into sub-lineages A2b/A2.2.1 (n = 3), A2c-wt/A2.2.2 (n = 4), and B1 (n = 1).
