BBC World Service - Newsday, Kenya Elections 2022: Raila Odinga v William Ruto

Votes are being counted but turnout was low

Frontrunners for president are ex-Prime Minister Raila Odinga and current Deputy President William Ruto

Votes are being counted in Kenya where a new president is being chosen to succeed Uhuru Kenyatta. Polling day was largely peaceful but the electoral commission estimated turnout at around 60 per cent, well short of the 80 per cent seen at the last election five years ago.

Supporters of former US president, Donald Trump, say the FBI’s raid of his Florida home is an attempt to prevent him running for the presidency in 2024.

And continuing anger, outrage and fear in South Africa following the gang rape of eight women who were attacked near an abandoned mine while filming a music video.
