The cabinet has approved a Sh4.2billion budget for the hosting of next year's Africa Nations Championships (Chan).
This was confirmed after yesterday's cabinet meeting held at State House, Nairobi.
It comes just three days before Confederation of African Football (Caf) makes a final decision on Kenya's ability to host the event during its executive meeting in Accra, Ghana.

The country is in the middle of a presidential election re-run after the supreme court nullified the Auguat 8 Presidential elections.
