I dont think the govt of kenya likes Obamination:

KENYAN AMBASSADOR SENDS PROTEST NOTE TO SENATOR BARAK OBAMA

YOUR REMARKS IN BAD TASTE, INJURIOUS TO KENYA/US BILATERAL RELATIONS
Mr. Senator,

1. I hereby wish to communicate to you the displeasure and disappointment of the Government of Kenya, the Kenya Embassy, Washington D.C. and the majority of Kenyans with regards to your recent utterances while in Kenya. Your unprovoked and uncalled for statements were in bad taste, particularly given that your visit was very well arranged in advance with full briefings given to your office in Washington D.C. by the Kenya Embassy. And, rather than nurture and strengthen the existing cordial and mutually beneficial relations between USA and Kenya, your wild accusations - that corruption and tribalism have reached a crisis point in Kenya - could only poison and injure our relations.

2. You deliberately and without real cause or reason, other than what appears to be cheap publicity and inconsequential populism, chose to publicly attack the democratically elected Government of Kenya. This was in total disregard for the requisite protocol and acceptable methods of addressing the issues you raised, what with programmed appointments to meet Cabinet Ministers and even the Head of State, since your visit was official.

...etc......

You're right The President Kibaki of Kenya doesn't like him since Obuma campaigned with Odinga against him. Riots ensued later caused by Odinga and his supporters.

Hell of a nice find.
Obviously Obama was against them because they were against corruption. Hindsight is 20/20
