Kenya’s Senator Edwin Sifuna and other African political leaders were denied entry into Angola despite an invitation from UNITA. The group included Tundu Lissu and several former political leaders. There has been no explanation from Angolan authorities for this denial, and historical ties between Tanzania and Angola were highlighted.
On March 14, 2023, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna was among various prominent African political leaders who were denied entry into Angola. This incident occurred despite their invitation from the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA). The delegation included other notable figures such as Tanzania’s opposition leader Tundu Lissu, who had traveled to Luanda for a scheduled two-day meeting.
The denial of entry into Angola for Senator Sifuna and other significant political leaders has raised concerns regarding diplomatic relations and engagement among African nations. The lack of an official explanation from the Angolan government further complicates the situation, prompting calls for clarification and accountability.
