We have to naturalize at least three thousand (3000) white foreigners per year, we also need law that prohibit a white man married to Kenya to stay in Kenya and not make them migrate to white peoples'land, not only a couple but the whole Kenyan clan and if there will be a chain migration of white people to Kenya then we should protest because that will be a return of colonialists.
@Kikuyu wanjomba,but the 3000 wazungus you suggest to be naturalized have to want to be naturalized Kenyans...And from that number, I would say 1% are economic immigrants as opposed to Kenyans who naturalize in the USA who just about all are economic immigrants. Nothing is wrong with that.The world is becoming a global village.As you can see, wazungu who come to Kenya are usually not from "shithole" countries...generally speaking ofcourse.They are usually rich,old with an eye for a young beautiful Kenyan girl who is seeking a rich old mzungu.

Kenyans made About 0.5% (0.475%) of all Naturalized. Not bad.😂
