President Uhuru Kenyatta pledged Thursday that he will respect the Constitution’s limit of two terms in the nation’s top office.
Asked if he might aim to become Kenya’s Prime Minister if a constitutional referendum creates such a post, Mr Kenyatta said, “I have no clue if there is going to be a premiership in the Constitution.”
Kenya’s lenders will hopefully develop a common and positive position on debt extension for African countries, just as the African Union has achieved consensus on the need for creating “fiscal space,” Mr Kenyatta added.
Lower-middle-income African countries such as Kenya are asking for “fiscal space” and are not calling for the debt forgiveness sought by some of the poorer countries on the continent, Mr Kenyatta said.
Official and independent bodies with responsibility for overseeing Kenya's police forces “are being empowered to take action,” Mr Kenyatta told his online audience.
