New passports: Relief for Kenyans in diaspora.

[Sinister]

President Uhuru Kenyatta has directed that Kenyans in diaspora be issued with new generation passports in their countries of residence.

Mr Kenyatta, who is on a visit in Namibia, issued the order to the immigration department and the Foreign Affairs ministry on Thursday when he met Kenyans living and working in the southern African nation.

He said he saw no reason why Kenyans living outside the country should incur huge financial costs to travel back home to Nairobi to acquire the new passports.

“Form a team that will go from country to country to register Kenyans in the diaspora. No Kenyan should be forced to spend money to travel to Kenya to get passports,” he said at the Windhoek Country Club.
