Nairobi, 14 June-(ANA)-Kenyan ministers have been told to give up their plush cars and limit themselves to a single vehicle with a small fuel-efficient engine.
All extra cars and those with an engine capacity of more than 1,800 cc will be confiscated and sold by September, the finance minister said.
Money from their sale will be used to house those still displaced after last year's post-election violence, he said.
Some 300,000 people fled their homes and thousands still live in camps.
Uhuru Kenyatta, finance minister in the power-sharing government that took office in April 2008 after a deal to end the violence, did not give any further details about how the internally displaced people would benefit.
The large power-sharing cabinet has come in for criticism for its cost to the taxpayer. (ANA)
