Why Kenya is sweet and sour

What you need to know:

It seems Kenya is catching some of the big post-Covid travel booms that a few lucky countries in the world are enjoying.

One of the reasons is that while the August election looms large domestically, unlike in the past, outside Kenya and East Africa, it has received considerably little press attention. The two years over the drama of the split between President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto, his backing of former rival and Prime Minister Raila Odinga, the BBI kerfuffle, and all the political shenanigans were overshadowed by the Covid-19 pandemic; the craziness of the US election and Donald Trump’s theatrics; the Ethiopian War; the delayed Olympics in Tokyo; America’s flight from Afghanistan and the return of the Taliban; the July 2021 South African riots; Tanzania’s President John Magufuli’s death, the emotion around his burial, and President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s ascension to office; the coups in West Africa; the Russian-Ukrainian war, and the food and energies it has sparked, to name a few.
