The Agriculture regulator is seeking to stop the re-exporting of mangoes originating from Kenya to Europe through Middle East markets even after the country imposed a self-ban on exports of the fruit to the EU.

Kenya stopped export of mangoes to European nations in 2014 to avoid sanctions that would have been occasioned by high incidence of fruit flies in the produce.
