The government has finally addressed the huge number of Asians currently being experienced in the country since last week.
According to Government Spokesperson Cyrus Oguna the new visitors who have flocked Nairobi estates are just tourists visiting the country and not Afghans seeking asylum while fleeing the Taliban.
“They are tourists in the country legally and some prefer traveling and staying as families,” Oguna noted.
The explanation comes after a video went viral showing hundreds of Pakistan men arriving in Gratewall, a residential estate in Athi River, Nairobi.
Others have been spotted in Eastleigh, Westlands and South C areas.
According to earlier reports, the Asians were redirected to Kenya for quarantine for two weeks since their country has been on lockdown.
