NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - Kenya's president, facing mounting pressure to respond to allegations of high-level government corruption, announced the resignations of his energy and education ministers Monday.
In an address on state-owned television, President Mwai Kibaki said that the two ministers had left government so that investigations of the scandals could proceed.
Kibaki won elections in 2002 promising to root out the corruption that had become endemic under the 24-year rule of his predecessor, President Daniel arap Moi.
