President Uhuru Kenyatta’s international trips have been at the center of controversies in the recent past. Though scolded by many-from an absentee’ President, tourist number one and waster of public funds, truth be said, President Uhuru’s foreign trips have brought more fruits, sweeter and better fruits than we expected. Though critics have noted that by August 2016, the President had made over 50 International trips and has spent about Sh2.6 billion to foreign trips, we should look at it different though.
People should understand that for development to take place in any given country, a sitting President must seek to attract the attention of the world and in my thinking he has done exactly that. Accosting him with all manner of names is uncalled for.
