Uhuru Kenyatta and the Politics of Fish – Part II
So
Uhuru Kenyatta wakes up one morning, in the month that just ended, and walks to
Strathmore University from where he bans importation of fish. Which I found
really stupid. Not because of who imports/exports fish but because of the
simple fact that Kenyans must just eat fish and there is a huge deficit as at
now hence to plug the shortage fish importation is inevitable. That aside.
Apparently, China went on to threaten Kenya with some sanctions or something?
Because it is a major player in the Kenyan fish import/export market anyway. Never
mind that China is fishing on, among others, the Kenyan waters off the Indian
Ocean. So Mr. Kenyatta who is apparently packing his suitcase to go for yet
another begging spree in China where he will be seeking more Chinese loans for
his famous altar of grand theft - the Standard Guage Railway (SGR) suddenly
realizes he made a mistake that afternoon at Strathmore. He quickly backpedals and hastily puts his fish import ban into a halt to "allow for further
consultations between the two governments."
