Walu, I can un-authoritatively confirm here that the DG has been misquoted.
The domain is .ke and the subdomain is nrb.ke, co.ke, ac.ke,
county.ke. This is what should not be created without DG's permission.
Although that is not the norm since ccTLD policy the world over is
created through community PDP.
