It’s been long since Kenya picked up a fight with another country. But the wait came to thunderous end yesterday. The Twitter trend Kenya vs Tanzania was trending for the better part of the day.
Tanzanian celebrity Idris Sultan, who was a Big Brother Africa contestant, seemingly started the tweef by telling Kenyans to move down south due to the unga crisis.
Someone tell Kenyans to move to Tanzania, Wana shida ya unga na skin color #TZvsKE

Kenyans being the more experienced of the two country, already hold a plethora of memes waiting for this exact moment to unleash them. Here are some of the funniest.
