Actually there's no issue with the certificate, some guy or malware on your machine
could be attempting a man in the middle attack!

PLEASE DON'T (AND NEVER) ACCEPT SUSPICIOUS CERTS!

Questions you should ask yourself:
a) Are you using windows?
       If so, do you have the latest Security patch installed?
   - Malware is very common on Windows, switch to Linux/BSD if you can! :)
b) Who's your ISP?
     Call them up and ask why you can't access google.co.ke.
      - It's possible someone has rooted the ISP and is interfering with your traffic.
c) Have you tested this on more browsers?
     - There could be a firefox plugin that's messing you up! Try Google Chrome. It has
        some pretty advanced algorithms for detecting phishing.
 
It could be none of the above though, please get back to us on how you solve this.

Cheers!

I think it is because they use a www.google.com certificate instead of one explicitly belonging to www.google.co.ke...

Thank you all for your input on this. There awas indeed a malware on the system that blocked my access to google.co.ke. One I did a scan of the whole and deleted some of files stored in the temp folder, I was able to get through to google.co.ke

Now I'm up and about.

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!

AND

It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
