A Kenyan man facing execution in Saudi Arabia has received a one-year reprieve, delaying his execution that was set for next month. Stephen Betrand Munyakho, also known as Stevo, will now be allowed to celebrate his 51st birthday in March.

• The required "blood money" to prevent his execution is 3.5 million Saudi riyals (Sh120.2 million).
• Key organizations involved include the Kenyan government and various advocacy groups.
• Despite raising around Sh20 million through the Bring Back Stevo Campaign, his family remains hopeful for "divine intervention" to gather the remaining funds.
