Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing'oei has refuted allegations that Kenya cut electricity supply to the Embassy of the Democratic Republic of Congo over a dispute. In response to online reports that were shared on social media, Sing'oei termed the reports as unfounded. This followed the dispute that emerged between Kenya and DRC over the controversial press briefing that was held by DRC opposition leaders over President Felix Tshisekedi's regime. In response, Kenya allegedly cut off the electricity supply to the embassy in Nairobi and removed the tarmac from the road leading to the embassy. "This embassy is located on Karura Avenue in Muthaiga, near the Belgium embassy," one of the online reports read in part.
