NAIROBI, Oct 18 (Reuters) – The Kenyan shilling was unchanged against the dollar on Friday and will likely remain at the same levels in the next week, one foreign exchange trader said.

The East African currency traded at 128.50/129.50 against the dollar at 0700 GMT, LSEG data showed, the same as Thursday’s closing rate.

The shilling has remained in the same range for several months.
