Some African students have recently voted Mr. Uhuru Kenyatta as Africa's president of the year "for his ability to build consensus locally and abroad." The report itself does not say what this means and how Kenyatta is the best example of this in Africa. It is, however, important to note that the Mo Ibrahim Foundation, with its very clear and rigorous understanding of leadership in Africa, did not see fit to select Mr. Kenyatta as Africa's leader of the year; it chose the President of Namibia, President Hifikepunye Pohamba.
