Kenya is seeking fresh negotiations with Rwandan and Ugandan traders as the government seeks to cut the compensation bill arising from the post-election violence that rocked the country eight years ago.
The traders, through regional lobby East African Business Council (EABC), had earlier settled for Ksh4.75 billion ($47.5 million) after the Kibaki administration convinced them to drop their bid to challenge Kenya in an international court.
