Kenya was condemned by Sudan and critics at home as "criminally irresponsible" on Wednesday for hosting Sudanese paramilitary rebels who are to declare a parallel government.

The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, at war with the Sudanese army for nearly two years, are preparing to declare a government in territories under their control during an event in Nairobi on Friday, RSF sources told AFP.
