Baba is the head of which state? Uk is being invited as the PORK.
This is about development agenda, not petty politics. Baba's camp should know and appreciate that.
He is a Kenyan citizen like you and has the right to visit any part of the country just like any other Kenyan citizen...why should every minor issue have to be viewed with OAR in mind?

If you are a student of political science, you may have read how power/authority is derived ( acquired and retained).
It so happens that UMK is indeed president by virtue of 50% votes and being handed over as per the constitution the power and authority of the state.
But there is also power derived from other sources.
RAO has, firmly in his grip 47% of the country who, incase of a slip up would not think twice of crowning him President.
A good portion of that 47% still passionately consider him 'the president' in their hearts though the constitution does not recognise it. They do and in a de facto way gives validity to his claim while watering down the real office bearers.
Some acquire authority through inheritance, e.g monarchs.
There is derived powers, like what one 'total man aka bull of Stockland' had curved out from MOI
etc etc
That is why he, RAO, is always on peoples thoughts and governments watchlist.
