Former Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Macharia Kamau on Monday lamented that travelling to Kenya through the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport was depressing. During Uhuru's tenure, the PS, who had previously served as Kenya’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations in New York, was tasked with marketing Kenya abroad. “Sometimes one arrives home from an international trip, say from Dubai, and one looks out the window of the plane at the depressing and chaotic urban sprawl,” he expressed his frustration with Nairobi’s landscape.

Asked why he was crying foul when he had generally remained quiet as PS, Macharia remarked that he was criticising the country in good faith.
