i know most or some of you people will be sentimental, some positive or some negative. admit it, we would all have loved president Obama visiting our country not as senator or an ordinary citizen like he used to do but as the president of the most powerful country in earth. but did we really need him here, my answer is no. some of the reasons he cites not being able to come here is because of the ICC cases facing our president and deputy president. but the questions we ask are: is the US a signatory of the Rome statute? how many innocent civilians have been killed by American drones and being referred to as collateral damage, are they not many more than the individuals who died during the post election chaos, has the united states not engaged in many wars probably than any other country in the world? we have seen what previous visits of senior American citizens like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden done to our country especially our lovely city Nairobi. lack or interference of networks ( i hope my phone is not a fake/china one0 security person everywhere loaded with modern guns or do i call then artillery. we cannot walk or pass through our streets freely without being frisked and so this is what I have to say? Mr. President, don't come to Kenya, lets bear the consequences of electing criminals and enjoy your African tour
