Kenya has successfully defended its seat for a fresh four-year mandate at the Council of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) based in Romania, as it seeks to cement its credentials as a digital economy leader on the continent.
This is after it garnered 146 votes on the Monday election to secure a seat on the 48-member Council, marking the best performance that the country has posted this far at the ITU, with a spike of six votes since the last elections in 2018.
