After a lengthy three-year hiatus, former president Uhuru Kenyatta has rejoined Twitter.
His account was deactivated on March 22, 2019. Information from State House indicated that the move was to centralize communication. However, in November 2020, Uhuru opened up about his social media exit, noting that trolls had forced him out.
You see I left Twitter and other social media sites because I saw they are full of insults and nothing constructive. You sit there reading the comments instead of sleeping. ‘Oh, what have they said?”
They make calls asking people to see how the trolls have attacked. I would rather sleep or talk to my wife,”
Uhuru Kenyatta
Now, he has resurfaced with a new handle, ‘@4thPresidentKE’ , which he is using for both Twitter and Facebook
His Twitter new account currently , has over 30k followers.
