A tweet regarding the introduction of a Kenyan digital currency on Raila Odinga’s X profile has generated responses from Kenyans.

Several people believe the former prime minister’s account has been accessed by hackers, whereas others argue it reflects the expansion of cryptocurrency in Kenya.

What did Raila Odinga share?

The announcement stated that Kenya is set to introduce a new digital currency and encouraged citizens to join the update channel on Telegram.

“We are happy to announce that the Kenya Token will soon be launched. A new digital asset designed to enhance our financial system and promote economic growth. Kenya is taking a leading role in driving Africa’s crypto revolution, adopting digital finance and creating a more cryptocurrency-friendly future. The official token will be launched on @solana,” stated the post on X.

An individual gained unauthorized access to Raila Odinga’s Twitter account and created a deep-fake to defraud people. Avoid falling for this, it is a fraudulent scheme.

Our Japanese counterparts are highly skilled in hacking major accounts to deploy their counterfeit tokens on Solana. Kenyans, be cautious.

I might be mistaken, but there’s something unusual about this tweet. Baba’s account has been compromised.

That’s impressive to witness 👏 Kenya entering the world of cryptocurrency on Solana seems like a significant advancement. I’m interested in observing how $KENYA develops and the influence it has locally.

Has Raila’s account been compromised? Why is this information being shared by Baba instead of Mbadi?
