US Journalist Issues Apology to Kenyans Over Nairobi Remarks

Newsmax journalist Rob Finnerty has apologized to Kenyans following a backlash after he compared New York City’s bad state to Nairobi.

In a statement on Tuesday October 13, Finnerty acknowledged that he had made a mistake and expressed regret.

“I want to offer an apology to the people of Nairobi, Kenya. The passion you have your city and homeland is amazing.

“We all make mistakes. I misspoke, and I am sorry to anyone I have offended,” the US journalist wrote.

The apology follows Finnerty’s remarks on October 9 where he linked immigration to what he described as the deterioration of some American cities.

The journalist said immigrants from Africa, Middle East and South America had moved to sanctuary cities and led to their bad state.

Finnerty accused former US President Joe Biden of allowing millions of immigrants into US adding that the US cities were looking more like Nairobi that New York City.
