Driving on a Kenya license
Turkmenistan and Kenya are both party to the 1968 Vienna Convention, so an International Driving Permit issued in Kenya is one Turkmenistan is bound to recognize.
Whether a permit is required alongside your national license is set by national road law, which we have not checked for this pair.
