Uhuru Kenyatta is leaving his office after his preferred candidate terribly lost the elections to William Ruto, who at the time of this publication, is the president elect of the Republic of Kenya.

According to the post by the British news agency, a petition signed more then 230,000 kenyans asked the international Monetary Fund not to grant the country a $2.34bn Covid-19 recovery fund, as it would only end up in the pockets of greedy, corrupt politicians, rather than do the work it is purposed for.
