In Paris, Ruto is scheduled to hold bilateral talks with his French counterpart President Emmanuel Macron, State House spokesperson Hussein Mohamed said in a press release.

The two will discuss the status of key development projects agreed upon by the two countries, among other issues.

“President Ruto’s visit to France is an important opportunity for both countries to strengthen their cooperation on key development projects and to discuss regional peace and security,” said Mohamed.

From France, Ruto will head to Dakar, Senegal, where he will be a keynote speaker at the Dakar 2 Summit on ‘Feed Africa: Food, Sovereignty and Resilience.’

The summit, which is organized by the Africa Development Bank, comes at a time when Africa is experiencing serious food security challenges.

“It is, therefore, an appropriate forum for Heads of State and other partners to discuss how to exploit Africa’s agricultural potential and the plans and programmes that will help scale production," Mohamed added.

“It will also be an opportunity for leaders in the continent to find ways through which Africa can meet the rising cost of food.”

    Africans will never learn because they worship others without thinking the consequences meted on them. Hii mambo yakunyorosa muko ni mbaya kabisa.

    To answer your question about the horrors peckerwoods have caused all over Africa, Waswahili husema "baniani mbaya, kiatu chake dawa".

    Samoei: Have you heard of "zoom" or "teleconferencing?"
    How long are you going to continue to waste public funds when cheap technology is readily available?

    Africa must come together and learn from the past and invest in their ppl. India population 1.4b just like Africa and Africa is 10x India in size yet they can feed themselves without GMO demonic food. Reliance on euro or China welfare is terrible.

    "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santayana, The Life of Reason, 1905.

    I wonder how many people of Kenya were able to cast their presidential vote on a man who spent five years campaigning and working on his doctorate which he proudly displays after his name!
