President William Ruto has called on the international community to partner with Kenya in supporting the country’s ambitious $38 billion (KSh5 trillion) development programme.
Speaking at State House Nairobi during the New Year Diplomatic Briefing, attended by ambassadors, high commissioners, and heads of international institutions, Ruto highlighted the crucial role of foreign investment in achieving Kenya’s transformation goals.
“We welcome investment partnerships from development finance institutions, pension funds, and the private sector in our National Infrastructure Fund,” the President said, emphasizing that collaboration with global partners is key to delivering on the government’s development priorities.
Ruto noted that the programme will drive infrastructure development, create jobs, and boost economic growth, urging investors to support long-term initiatives that will benefit Kenya and the wider region.
The President also reaffirmed Kenya’s commitment to regional peace and stability, encouraging global partners to support initiatives in Sudan, South Sudan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“Kenya is committed to working with our partners to ensure sustainable development, economic prosperity, and stability across the region,” he said.
