NAIROBI: Online activists who claim ties to Anonymous said they had begun to leak documents from Kenya's foreign ministry as part of a campaign to expose government and corporate corruption across Africa. 

HackRead, a cyber security news site, reported that a hacker affiliated with "Operation Africa" had told it: "In (a) few days you will receive full disclosure of the data – We the Anonymous will stand against corruption, child abuse, and child labour!"
