“I thank Kanye for the gift of white sneakers. Enjoy your time in Uganda,” Mr Museveni tweeted.
Mr Museveni gave both visitors Ugandan names to mark the occasion. “Kanyesigye” for Kanye, which means “I trust” and “Kemigisha” for Kim, which means “the one with blessings from God” in the local language.
