Kenyans on Twitter on Tuesday descended on Rwandese President Paul Kagame after he told a Kenyan to let his country be.

A Kenyan twitter user @levikones had tweeted President Kagame on Monday, “@PaulKagame I really hope sir, you will not ruin your legacy by being President for life.”

The statement was a reply to the President’s tweet in which he thanked his team for what he called ‘the Unbreakable Rwandan spirit.”

President Kagame, who has over 1 million followers on the social media platform, responded to the Kenyan, “@levikones worry more about your own legacy …if you got any at all to think about!”

It was a response that rubbed the overzealous Kenyans on Twitter, known for being vocal, to create a trending hashtag #SomeoneTellKagame.

Concerns have however emerged on whether #KOT activism should include delving into affairs of regional neighbours.
