The Hidden Hands in Kenyan Politics: Are Superpowers Choosing Our Presidents?

Think Kenya is a fully sovereign state where the voters alone decide who goes to State House? Think again. In international politics, Kenya’s strategic position as the gateway to Africa makes it a prime target for covert foreign operations.

Global superpowers like the US and the UK have long used organizations like the CIA and MI6 to quietly steer Kenyan elections. They work behind the scenes to ensure that whoever takes power aligns with their strategic plans and they leave absolutely no paper trail.

History Repeats Itself

The 1960s Cold War: The US actively coordinated with local intelligence to neutralize Jaramogi Oginga Odinga because of his financial links to the Soviet Eastern Bloc.

The 2007 Election: Despite early signs pointing to a Raila Odinga victory, the US heavily backed incumbent Mwai Kibaki. Why? Raila’s education in East Germany made Western powers deeply suspicious. In fact, the US was notoriously the very first country to rush and congratulate Kibaki during that highly contested election.

The Anglo-American Tug-of-War: Britain and America don't always agree. In 1969, the British trusted Jomo Kenyatta, but the Americans didn’t—and they secretly backed Tom Mboya instead.

What This Means for Today

You can sing about sovereignty all you want, but history proves one thing: if a superpower decides it is not in their best interest for a candidate to win, they have the methods, techniques, and covert resources to ensure that candidate never ascends to the presidency.

So, what are the Americans and British planning behind closed doors right now? Which candidates are they trying to block, and who are they quietly setting up to win?

This is just scratching the surface. If you want to dive deep into the unclassified evidence, see the historical breakdowns, and discover exactly how foreign intelligence agencies operate in Nairobi, you need to watch the full video.
