Kenyan President William Ruto has ordered an immediate crackdown on foreigners, including Chinese nationals, operating small-scale businesses and engaging in hawking in Kenya. The directive is aimed at enforcing regulations that reserve certain small-scale trading activities for Kenyan citizens. President Ruto said the government would take action against foreigners involved in businesses meant for Kenyans, as authorities move to strengthen enforcement across the country. The directive does not amount to a blanket shutdown of Chinese-owned businesses in Kenya, but targets foreigners engaged in specific small-scale commercial activities.
