Kenya to become visa-free to African visitors

Africa News, International
Kenya is to end visa requirements for all African visitors by the end of the year, President William Ruto has said.

Kenya suspends 27 officials over expired sugar trade

Africa News, International
The head of Kenya’s standards regulator and 26 other government officials have been suspended over the release of 1,000 tonnes of expired sugar into the market.

Deputy President William Ruto has been declared the winner of Kenya's presidential election amid dramatic scenes. He narrowly beat his rival, Raila Odinga, taking 50.5% of the vote, according to the official results. The announcement was delayed amid scuffles and allegations of vote-rigging by Mr Odinga's campaign.
