[The Conversation Africa] Kenya has temporarily halted controversial plans to send a specially trained contingent of 1,000 police officers to Haiti, where armed gang violence recently took a turn for the worse. After a visit to Nairobi in early March where he signed terms for Kenya's deployment, Haitian prime minister Ariel Henry was forced to resign as gangs took control of the country's capital, Port-au-Prince. In the absence of a government in Haiti, plans to deploy Kenyan troops are on hold.
