Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper

Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key

Critics have argued that delayed procurement risks system failures and a rushed rollout of the voter identification and results transmission systems.
