This could be a coordinated group attacking Wikipedia's coverage of Africa (which I find to be excellent), trying to paint a rosier picture and excising Euro influence. I have to wonder whether they are working on behalf of real estate developers or other interested parties.

Began as IPs in the fall of 2020 or perhaps earlier. Since Dec 6, 2020, this group of new-account POV-pushing editors have been trying to alter Africa- and especially Kenya-related articles to increase perceived prosperity and to remove evidence of European influence. They do not use edit summaries, and are receiving Talk complaints. On Nairobi, the group dominated the history of the article on Dec 31. I feel that some of these individuals, if not rolled back, will have seriously damaged some of the articles on which they have focussed.
