Businessman Richard Ngatia was sworn in as president of the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry. He won the seat in an uncontested election after his opponents pulled out last month.

Mr Ngatia said the business community elected him with the hope of a new beginning and a future projected with a better investment environment.
