Candidate announcement
NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 27 — Kenya says it has not endorsed any candidate for United Nations Secretary-General, clarifying its position after publicly welcoming the candidature of the United Arab Emirates’ Lana Nusseibeh.
Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing’Oei said Kenya was following the ongoing selection process but had yet to declare support for any contender seeking to succeed António Guterres.
“Quite to the contrary, Kenya has not expressed support for any candidate at this point,” Sing’Oei said.
