NAIROBI— A Kenyan official says the government is “unlikely” to shut down the internet during next month’s presidential elections.
Communication Authority chief Francis Wangusi said Monday they are not thinking of shutting down the internet but warned that it should not be used to release alternative election results.
Observers have warned of possible violence around the elections as in the past.
A spokesman for the leading opposition candidate, Raila Odinga, says they fear the systems will be used for election fraud.
