A British govt official familiar with the negotiations around the Defence Co-Operation yesterday told Standard Media that the agreement had been worked out for the five year old constitution.

The old deal was to lapse this month but President Kenyatta and Cameron agreed to six-month extension when they met on the sidelines of the United Nations Assembly in New York, US. Under the new agreement, the British military will train at-least 10,000 of its soldiers every year in three batches, with at least 3,000 troops spending six weeks in training.
