Amherst College in Massachusetts has confirmed that President Uhuru Kenyatta is an alumni of the college.
The US college responded on Twitter to a number of Kenyans who sought to know if the President graduated from the institution.
Amherst’s twitter administrator confirmed that the President graduated with an undergraduate degree in Economics and Political Science from the institution.
The college provided web link showing the president as one of the graduates of the class of 1985.
Others however sought to find out how he performed at the institution but the college responded saying that it does not disclose personal details of former students as a matter of policy.
Here are some of the tweets between the school and the inquisitive Kenyans.
