British Prime Minister Theresa May showed off her moves at the United Nations' Nairobi campus on Thursday as she danced with Kenyan scouts on a visit for the launch of an initiative to inspire young people to combat single-use plastic pollution.​

May, who is on a three-day tour of Africa aimed at strengthening trade ties, also danced with students at a school in Cape Town, South Africa on Tuesday.

Both of her performances went viral on social media but remarks overwhelmingly suggested May should stop dancing for the sake of everyone watching her.​

After dancing with the British leader, Kenyan scouts showed her their inventive takes on re-using plastic, including a soccer ball made of plastic bags which May later enthusiastically kicked.​
