Did Governor Kabogo wear Amina Mohammed’s tag in the US?
A nosy Kenyan claims to have discovered that Kiambu Governor William Kabogo used an identification tag that did not belong to him to access the United Nations General Assembly (Unga) conference hall in the US earlier this week.
Mr Kabogo was photographed outside the conference hall wearing a tag which social media users claim bore the name of Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed.
The governor was among an entourage that accompanied Deputy President William Ruto to the US for the Unga.
He later attended “a high level meeting in Global Partnership for Social protection so as to achieve the SDGs at the UN Headquarters during the 71st session of the General Assembly.”
But Twitter was more concerned with the slight anomaly.
