Tomorrow
marks the arrival of Pope Francis in Nairobi for a 46 hour visit, during which
time he’ll be conducting mass in a number of large venues, and visiting one of
the slum areas. We’ve been getting mixed messages about the impact of this
visit on the work week:
Monday’s
newspaper: “The government on Sunday announced that there will be no
public holiday during the three-day visit to Kenya by Pope Francis.”
Tuesday’s newspaper: “The Government has declared November 26 a Public Holiday and a National Day of Prayer and Reflection as Kenya hosts Pope Francis.”
I’m half expecting that tomorrow we’ll be told
that Thursday isn’t a public holiday after all!
Tuesday’s newspaper: “The Government has declared November 26 a Public Holiday and a National Day of Prayer and Reflection as Kenya hosts Pope Francis.”
