19 تموز 2024 17:02
Kenya's embattled president has announced a new "broad-based government" following weeks of deadly anti-government protests sparked by an unpopular tax bill.
However, six of the 11 ministers President William Ruto proposed in Friday's address were from the cabinet he sacked just last week.
When dismissing that cabinet, Mr Ruto had said the move came after "reflection and listening to Kenyans"
On Friday, he said the "crisis" Kenya was experiencing was lesser than the "opportunity" before the country.
