Uhuru and Odinga have now pledged to unite their country Kenya

Messrs. Uhuru and Odinga have now pledge to unite the country which has been reeling over the worst polarization that the diverse communities in the country have ever experienced in its 54 year of existence since 1963 independence.

The economy of Kenya has been dented and battered whilst many western countries were holding their fingers on their hearts since Nairobi is UN’s epicenter in the continent.
