NAIROBI (Halbeeg News) – Kenya has extended the nationwide night curfew by 60 days as the country fights to contain spread of Coronavirus.
President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday noted that the country’s positivity rate has fallen from 13 per cent in June to seven in August and now stands at 4.4.
Kenya will be free to move from 11pm to 4am local time.
“The daily dusk-to-dawn curfew will therefore run from 11pm to 4am in the morning,” President Kenyatta said.
He however challenged all Kenyans to continue adhering to laid down containment protocols.
“We have not yet won the war, we are faced with a possibility of second-wave. This clearly implies the enemy is still in our borders as we continue to record new infections every day,” Uhuru said.
Since last March Kenya has recorded 38,115 cases of coronavirus with death toll stands at 691.
