Kenya's parliament bans Kaunda suits and traditional clothes
Kenya's parliament has banned the wearing of a suit, named after the late Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda, within the building.
Speaker of Parliament Moses Wetangula said Kaunda suits, as well as traditional African clothes, were not welcome.
Kenyan President William Ruto often wears them on official occasions.
This has made the Kaunda suit - a safari jacket with matching trousers - popular with the political class.
The suit is named after the late Zambian president who loved wearing them.
It is often short-sleeved, and is worn without a tie.
Mr Ruto has worn the suit sometimes with a short upturned collar.
OS's James Reynolds has been speaking to the Kenyan-American journalist Kui Mwai. How would she describe the suit?
