King Charles III is set to visit Kenya next week on his first visit as monarch to Africa. However, his visit may be met with controversy as Kenya has blocked the airing of allegations of UK army abuses before his arrival. Ahead of the visit, a 100-year-old man named Kibore Cheruiyot Ngasuraagain hopes to address the issue of the abuse his clan endured during the colonial-era and seek a public apology from the British government. Protests have also broken out in Nairobi, with demonstrators condemning King Charles as a 'brutal monarch'.
