Kenya is set to be the among hardest hit African countries by Donald Trump's decision to freeze US Aid as far as national security is concerned.
After Trump's executive orders, Kenya will now have to cope with the possibility of fending off terrorism threats without the much-needed help from the US.
In terms of foreign aid spent on global security, Kenya is the third biggest beneficiary in Africa, behind Egypt and Somalia, with the country receiving upward of Ksh2.7 billion (USD 21 million).
Previously, the US was willing to fund the Anti-Terrorism Assistance program, meant to improve the capacity of allies to respond to extremist threats.
