The President emphasized that his predecessor had done an admirable job guiding peace measures, particularly in the neighboring nation of Ethiopia, which was hit by a brutal battle in November 2020 after Tigray rebels attacked government soldiers.


Uhuru warmly welcomed Ruto's proposal for him to serve as Kenya's peace ambassador in the area, according to Ruto.

"On the peace initiatives in our region including both in Ethiopia and Great Lakes Region, I have asked my elder brother President Uhuru Kenyatta who has done commendable engagement with those regions and he has graciously agreed to continue chairing those discussions on behalf of the people of Kenya," Ruto said.
