If I use this transfer, can I stay in London for a while or would it have to be just part of the trip to NBO?
Read the rules again. You have to transit (not stop over) at London if you want to fly to Kenya, Uganda or Tanzania (or Nigeria or Ghana) otherwise you'd be entering Europe twice, which is otherwise prohibited. The transfer via London (either going to those countries or coming from) has to be in a direct connection to/from another continent (in your case, Asia.) This rule is due to those countries being connected to the rest of the Oneworld network ONLY through London.
