Ruto to jet out to Ethiopia for AU Summit
President William Ruto will today evening leave the country for Addis Ababa Ethiopia.
In a press statement by the State House Spokesman Mohamed Hussein, Ruto will attend the 37th African Union (AU) summit of Heads of State and Government.
He is set to speak on education inequalities that have left 98 million children in Africa without access to schooling and deliver a report on the strides the continent has made in mitigating the climate crisis.
"This includes the Nairobi Declaration, agreed upon during the first-ever Africa Climate Summit in Nairobi last September," Hussein noted.
The report is in line with his role as the chair of the Committee of African Heads of State and Government on Climate Change (CAHOSCC).
The theme of the summit is on building resilient education systems for Africa's 21st-century human capital.
Further, President William Ruto will participate in a mini-East African Community Summit focusing on the situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo among other regional concerns.
The Head of State is also set to hold meetings with counterparts, heads of international agencies, and business leaders.
Notably, the trip to Addis follows his recent four-day official visit to Japan before embarking on a short trip to Dubai to attend the World Governments Summit (WGS).
