Kenya's embattled Ruto names partial new cabinet

Kenya's embattled President William Ruto on Friday named a partial new cabinet as part of a process of forming a "broad-based" government, after a month of widespread and sometimes deadly protests against his administration.

In a televised address, Ruto unveiled the names of 11 proposed ministers, after last week sacking almost his entire cabinet as he seeks to contain the worst crisis of his nearly two-year presidency.
