In the notice issued on Tuesday, 11th, the Kenyan government did not give any reasons for the action.
The suspension comes days after Qatar brokered a breakthrough that saw Mogadishu restore diplomatic ties with Nairobi.
Somalia restored its diplomatic relations with Kenya after five months following mediation by Qatar led by Emir Sheikh Tamim Al Thani.
Somalia through the Ministry of Information said they were resuming the good relations “in keeping with the interests of good neighborliness”.
“The two governments agree to keep friendly relations between the two countries on the basis of principles of mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, non-interference in each other’s internal affairs, equality, mutual benefit, and peaceful co-existence,” the statement said.
Kenya through the Foreign Affairs ministry acknowledged the development saying they are looking forward to furthering the normalization of relations by the Somali authorities.
