Known as ATT, the former president had been due to step down this month after two terms in office – and people had become increasingly frustrated with his government for doing little to tackle corruption and the growing insecurity and eventual rebellion in the north.
Akijulikana kama ATT, rais huyo wa zamani alikuwa anatarajiwa kuachia ngazi mwezi huu baada ya mihula miwili ya uongozi - na watu walikuwa wamechanganyikiwa zaidi na serikali yake kwa kufanya kidogo kukabiliana na ufisadi na kuongezeka kwa ukosefu wa usalama na hatimaye uasi kaskazini.
