The number of Kenyans born in foreign countries rose 14.9 percent during the year ended last December to 5,694, signalling that more Kenyans are moving abroad either for work or studies.
This marked an increase from 4,954 in 2023, with most of the births in the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK), according to new data from the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics’ (KNBS’) Kenya Vital Statistics Report 2024.
