Uhuru to open meeting of Africa spy men

Kenya: African spy men are meeting in Nairobi to discuss continental security threats in the last one year. The spies are meeting under the auspices of Committee of Intelligence and Security Services of Africa (CISSA), established in 2004

The week-long conference, which begins today, is expected to end on Friday August 30. President Uhuru Kenyatta will open the conference, which brings together African heads of intelligence and security services. African Union Chairperson Dlamini Zuma, her deputy Erastus Mwencha and AU Commissioner for Peace and Security Smail Chergui are expected to attend the conference.

The meeting comes at a time when Kenya’s long serving intelligence boss Michael Gichangi has been replaced with Maj-Gen Philip Kameru.
