The United States Ambassador to Kenya, Meg Whitman has resigned after a backlash on social media platforms from some Kenyans pushing for her recall back to Washington citing her silence on issues such as corruption, extrajudicial killings, and abductions.
Whitman who has served as U.S. envoy to Kenya over the last two years, says she has submitted her resignation to President Joe Biden.
“Today, I announced to my team at the U.S. embassy that I submitted my resignation to President Biden. It has been an honour and privilege to serve the American people through strengthening our partnership with Kenya,” said Whitman.
