President Uhuru Kenyatta’s weekend visit to Tanzania was seen as possible thawing of tensions between the two neighbouring nations.

But it was the show of Uhuru’s softer side that captured many’s imagination. He touched many hearts with his solemn prayer for the quick recovery of Mama Suzana Magufuli, the mother of his Tanzanian host, President John Pombe Magufuli.
