Hi Emmy,

I am from Kenya working in the Open Data space. Having worked in the
Code4Kenya program, a jointly funded program by the World Bank and African
Media Initiative, we set up a pan-African data portal at
http://africaopendata.org. You are able to view, download and upload open
data datasets from all over Africa including Kenya.

Cheers,
David.
