Saboti Member of Parliament Caleb Amisi has stated that the recent designation of Kenya as a non NATO ally exposes the country to terror attacks.
Taking to his official X account on Tuesday, May 28, 2024, the lawmaker claimed the move made Kenya inherit all the enemies of the United States of America.
Caleb Amisi argues that Kenya will now be a proxy ground for geopolitical hegemonic power struggle, and that the country will now be constantly hit by terrorist groups.
"Designating Kenya as a non NATO ally has officially put us at the center of global wars. Our country is now a proxy ground for geopolitical hegemonic power struggle . We are constantly going to be hit by organized terrorist groups, we have officially inherited Americas' enemies," Amisi said in the post.
War atrocities
The second term lawmaker further pointed out that the US will now be fighting their enemies on Kenya's blood, not theirs.

He further argues that the US will only donate food, medicine and more weapons in the aftermath of the war atrocities.
"And the US will only donate food, medicine, and more weapons in the aftermath of war atrocities. US will fight their enemies on Kenya blood and not American blood. We are going to be in tatters like UKRAINE . Oh Lord ,how did we reach here. I blame it on the ineptitude of Uhuru to leave power to the wrong hands, coupled by a confused Azimio brigade. Kenya needs a Renaissance!" he added.

A major non-NATO ally (MNNA) refers to a country that is not part of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), yet has a deep strategic and security partnership with the US.
It is a designation that denotes a high level of trust.
Kenya-US relations
United States President Joe Biden pledged to designate Kenya as the country’s first key non-NATO ally in sub-Saharan Africa as President William Ruto made a state visit to Washington, DC, to deepen ties between the two nations.
During a news conference at the White House on Thursday, May 23, 2024, Biden said he planned to work with Congress to give Kenya the largely symbolic title.
