Kenya: Deputy President William Ruto has managed to convince rebels in South Sudan to release a Kenyan plane that was seized in the north of the country.
The Deputy President made the revelation yesterday after returning from a special summit of the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (Igad) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia where he met the rebels led by Riek Machar as well as the Government of President Salva Kiir. The DP said the plane plus its pilot had been seized in the rebel territory for the last ten days but will soon be flying back to Nairobi. No further details about the plane, its pilot or its mission in rebel-held areas have been made public so far.
