President Uhuru Kenyatta has hinted that he may relax the curfew and the cessation of movement in several counties.
Speaking when he unveiled the Sh54 billion economic recovery plan, the President declared that the curfew and the lockdown cannot continue forever and that he will soon issue a decree of easing the measures.
The curfew was also followed by a decree for a cessation of movements into Nairobi, Mombasa, Kilifi and Kwale.
“The only way to get out of this situation is to ensure that we open the economy,” he said, insisting that the population must strictly follow the measures and protocols announced by the government to help fight the disease that has infected more than 1,190 Kenyans and left 50 others dead.
The President declared that once the curfew is lifted, the obligation will shift to the population.
