Trust Kenyans on twitter to react to news whether bad or good in humorous fashion.
Yesterday, Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed lost the African Union Commission chairperson post to Chad’s Moussa Mahamat.
Mahamat won with 38 votes against Amina’s 26 votes in the hotly contested elections at the African Union headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
While Kenyans on twitter had initially backed the CS to clinch victorious, they later turned to making humor out of Amina’s failure to bag the post.
Through the hashtag ‘Why Amina Lost,’ below are some of the reactions:
I think DP Ruto mentioned Raila`s name more times than Amina`s during the shuttle diplomacy confusing the heads of state hence #WhyAminaLost
