Kenankuna is a settlement in Kasaï-Oriental Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The country's census tables compiled by City Population list it with 14,194 inhabitants at the census of 1 July 1984 and an estimated 25,636 inhabitants on 1 July 2004, and GeoNames, which places it at latitude -5.99880 and longitude 23.25386, carries a newer population figure of 44,093 for the surrounding settlement. According to the digital elevation model GeoNames uses, the site stands about 649 metres above sea level, and it keeps Central Africa Time (UTC+2). Kenankuna is not a provincial capital, so it appears in the census tables as one of the country's smaller towns rather than as the seat of a province. The atlas places it in the Middle Africa subregion of Africa and treats it as a city for browsing purposes.
