Kenya's President William Ruto said Thursday that his government was ready to privatise 35 state companies "trapped in government bureaucracy" in a bid to boost productivity following a change to laws.

Last month, Ruto’s government signed a revised privatisation bill into law that makes it easier to sell state enterprises to private companies.
