As Donald Trump prepares for a potential second presidential term, experts warn of significant cuts to U.S. development aid for Africa, which totaled $66 billion last year. Political analyst Macharia Munene forecasts reductions across various sectors, emphasizing Trump’s belief that America should prioritize its own citizens. The future of the African Growth and Opportunity Act, a key trade agreement, also hangs in the balance. Although some Kenyan experts express optimism for its extension, concerns persist about the growing influence of China in Africa, potentially limiting U.S. engagement on the continent.
