NAIROBI: In 2015, Kenya was blessed with prominent visitors, the high point being Barack Obama’s July visit and the November visit by Pope Francis. The year ended with the 10th Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organization.
Curtain-raising another year of high-visibility events are visits by Presidents Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria and Abdel Fattah el Sisi of Egypt. British Prime Minister David Cameron has also committed to coming and President Modi of India may come soon. These visits affirm Kenya’s place as a strategic geo-political development partner.
