“As of April 17, confirmed Covid-19 cases in the UK stood at 108,093 with a total of 14,576 deaths. Of those who’ve lost their lives, two are Kenyans. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families,” he said.

Esipisu also said they are in touch with community leaders in the UK to support those in distress. He disclosed that he was in communication with the Foreign Affairs Ministry about Kenyans who are stranded in the UK due to the ban on international flights.
