I’m pretty sure the Kenyan document is typed in Elite font. Most typewriters of that era were either Elite or Pica. I know, because I used those old machines.
Look like a good match. The lower case L was used as the numeral 1. Capital O and zero are also the same.

Thank you Jedidah! I think Elite is probably right for the typeface, it is very very similiar to Courier, which might have been modeled after that.
Jedidah, You are making the basic mistake most computer users make... a font is not a typeface... or a "font" (which also isn't a typeface although we are more and more using it to mean that)
A Pica is a unit of measurement used in printing. It is 1/72nd of an inch.
Neither Elite nor Pica, when referring to a typewriter, are typefaces or fonts. Both refer to the pitch of the typewriter, i.e., how many characters per inch that particular model will place on a page a paper. A Pica typewriter, regardless of the typeface used, will strike the paper, adding a character, and then move the platen to the left 10/72", thus resulting in a pitch of 10 characters per inch. An Elite Typewriter, also regardless of the typeface used, will hit the paper, and then move the platen over 8/72", resulting in a pitch of 12 characters per inch. An Elite typewriter could place more letters and spaces and thus more words on a page than a Pica typewriter... College students loved Pica typewriters because it was easier to turn out a 10 page paper using 10 letters per inch than it was to do the same using 12 letters per inch. Pica type was also larger and a bit easier to read.
Most typewriters were single pitch machines. The IBM Selectric was one of the first selectable pitch typewriters.
