Good snub, why come shake hands with a bunch of "good for nothing" kenya politicians, what have they done for their people, they keep talking new constitution, Agenda 4, truth & reconciliation yet no action, bure kabisa, useless politicians evading tax while we still have IDP's living like refugees in their own country, worsening security, if the thugs or mungiki dont kill you, the police will, something has to give, Kenya needs a change in leadership

Kudos Obama, but you were kind in your words. Tell off these people- as though they are listening anyway. Our politicians have made our cause as useless as they are.

Keep it up Obama, do not enter Kenya forever until the dominate politician repents, such as Saitoti, Kiraitu, etc.

You forgot the NSSF scandal, The missing sports and youth ministry money scandal, Kenya Tourism Board Scandal and of course many smaller ones that never make it to the national news

Why are Kenyans so forcused on where he goes while there are more pressing issues here in Kenya like corruption which our government seems not 2 be doing anything about

Obama + America wacha double standard. When it comes to democracy, rule of law and human right issues some countries that American has vital interest in it are not questioned (Egypt, S/arabia, and isreal) but when it can to poor nation in sub Sahara and Latin America the rules is always differs.

if it will take obama not coming to kenya, and his comments, for kenyans to "step up" and DEMAND meaningful change then be it...... good on obama for snubbing kenya.
