This announcement comes days after President Uhuru Kenyatta extended the nationwide curfew by another 60 days in a cautious approach to reopening the economy.
The President said that while the Covid-19 cases were on the decline in the country, reversals in other countries especially Europe serve as a warning to avoid a headlong dash to normalcy.
