President Joe Biden announced last week a visit to Africa in October, his first as US president and certainly his last, as he will not be defending his seat in the November's elections.
When he hosted Kenya's President William Ruto in May, he indicated that he would visit the continent starting in January 2025, but political events in Washington have changed that plan.
