It will take a while before the world adjusts to a Trump presidency. But his win has taught the world the painful reality of democracy. Most Kenyans will miss the grace by which Barack Obama ran his administration. As a leader, he not only united the world but offered hope at a time the United States economy was crumbling.
Obama was a symbol of humility and was admired for his charisma, gentility and tolerance. He made the work of the president of the world’s super power look cool. Above all he was an inspiration to many families, looking at what a family man he was and how good he was with children.
