Kenya Tourism Board has said it is committed to ensuring the safety and satisfaction of visitors to the East African country.
The assurance is coming on the heels of the unrest unleashed on the country by citizens over the controversial Finance Bill which triggered wide scale demonstrations across Kenya.
Chairman of Kenya Tourism Board, Francis Gichaba in a press statement said Presidential William Ruto has declined his assent to the bill and written to Parliament to withdraw the Bill and give way for dialogue with the youth and other stakeholders opposed to the bill.

He stated that “These are reassuring steps confirming that Kenya is open for
business. We invite you to come and experience the magic of Kenya where adventure, culture and natural beauty await. Visit Magical Kenya and discover the wonders that await you in all our destinations.
