NAIROBI, Kenya
Acting Haitian Prime Minister Garry Conille has landed in Kenya for a four-day state visit.
Kenya’s Prime Cabinet
Secretary, Musalia Mudavadi who is also the foreign affairs Cabinet Secretary
welcomed Conille at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Thursday.
According to Mudavadi, Conille
is expected to hold high-level bilateral talks with President William Ruto
surrounding strengthening security cooperation and fostering partnerships that
promote regional stability between Kenya and Haiti.
“This visit by H.E. Dr.
Conille represents a significant moment in the deepening of diplomatic
relations between our two countries, with both Kenya and Haiti eager to explore
new avenues for collaboration in economic development and security partnerships,”
Mudavadi stated.
The CS was accompanied by his
Labour and Social Protection counterpart Dr Alfred Mutua, National Security
Advisor, Dr. Monica Juma and Butere MP Tindi Mwale.
The visit by the Haitian prime
minister comes days after the Caribbean nation's apparent massacre northwest of
Port-au-Prince that left at least 70 people dead.
The attack, carried out early
Thursday in the town of Pont Sonde, some 100 kilometres (60 miles) from the
capital, also saw scores of houses and vehicles torched after gang members
opened fire.
