One of the trending topics on Kenya’s social media on Thursday was the presence of the country’s former prime minister Raila Odinga at the Africa Fertiliser and Soil Health Summit in Nairobi alongside seven heads of state and government, including President William Ruto.
Odinga, who lost the last election to the incumbent president with a narrow margin, was presumably at the meeting to campaign for his bid to become the next African Union Commission (AUC) chairperson next year.
