Finally France has Discovered Eastern Africa

Apparently Mr. Emmanuel Macron has made a new discovery. New hunting fields in the wastelands of Eastern Africa that remained unknown to the mighty France all these years. Macron becomes the first ever French President to visit Kenya. The US’s ‘offer’ to do a road from Mombasa to Nairobi and France’s ‘offer’ to do a light railway between Nairobi CBD and Jomo Kenyatta International Airport are clearly aimed at rivaling Chinese dominance as infrastructure supplier in Kenya and sub- Sahara Africa, speaking to the infamous ‘new scramble for Africa.’ But who told these guys that infrastructure was a priority for a majority of the peoples of Africa? But you see that is where big money happens. ‘Elite pacts’ and big money. As usual other areas of so called mutual interest between Nairobi and Paris is ‘war on terror’ and Uhuru Kenyatta’s retirement plan - the so called ‘blue economy.’ I always get lost and will never want to find myself in this stuff. Karibu Kenya Mr. Macron. I wish you brought along some yellow vests though!
