The resignation of Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn and South African President Jacob Zuma has evoked a witty response from Kenyans online.

The two resignations hours apart sparked a discussion on Twitter about African leaders’ penchant to hang on to power despite pressure to resign from their citizens.

Some shared a photo of President Uhuru Kenyatta meeting with the two former leaders.

A cheeky tweep suggested Kenyans could donate one of their presidents (Raila or Uhuru) to countries experiencing presidential vacuum.

Here are some of the reactions.
