Kenyans mock CS Amina Mohamed after AU loss
Soon after the African Union voted for Chad’s Moussa Faki Mahamat as the new commission chairperson, Kenyans took to Twitter to give reasons why their Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed lost.
Using the hashstag #WhyAminaLost, Kenyans expressed mixed reactions, with most users seemingly mocking Ambassador Mohammed who was a strong candidate in the Monday vote.
