Kenya grants temporary amnesty as fear pushes neighbours to embassy
After hundreds of Burundians sought Kenya’s embassy in Nairobi amid a crackdown on foreign-owned small businesses, Nairobi announced temporary amnesty for undocumented neighbouring nationals. The government urged registration at diplomatic missions, vowed zero tolerance against harassment, and moved ahead with restricting foreigners from certain trades, while Tata Chemicals will be replaced by two new firms as part of broader economic shifts.
