A Case Of Pure Pretense? See What Kidero Is Doing Ahead Of Obama Visit (Photos)

It is now less than a month before Obama visits Kenya for the first time ever since becoming US President. Despite having his roots in Kenya, Obama has dodged Kenya in his previous African visits, the nearest being a visit to Tanzania.

However, the most powerful man on earth finally confirmed he will be coming over in July.

This has got pretense taken to another level. Nairobi County government is on the run to beautify the capital as Obama comes in.

Major rehabilitation is going along the roads Obama is expected to use. This include Mombasa Road, Uhuru Highway and Langata Road.

The county government, however, deny that it is not because of Obama’s visit and that the rehabilitation will continue even after he has left.

Here are some photos from the work going on on these roads. The question is, must we wait for such moments to beautify our environment?
