Authorities have issued a warning against unauthorized home DNA test kits that are being advertised for retail sale on digital websites.
This comes on the back of debates on social media about the home DNA test collection kits going on sale at a cost of 800 shillings ($6; £5), with an extra charge levied to get laboratory results.
Meanwhile, Officials in Kenya have released a statement indicating that it had not authorized any retailer to sell such kits.
Consumers are however encouraged to report to the Pharmacy and Poisons Board in case they come across any retailer selling related products.
