Somali and Sudanese refugees residing in Kenya will face a tough challenge seeking asylum in the United States after President Donald Trump signed a proclamation that bans individuals from 12 countries from entering the US.
The announcement made on Wednesday, June 4, comes as the US continues to seek means to stop what it terms as 'unlawful' migration to the land of dreams.
The Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Myanmar, and Chad are all prohibited from travel.
Additionally, the measure restricts entry to a certain extent for citizens of Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela.
