Away from home in Ethiopia,the head of state Uhuru Kenyatta is preaching integration as key to Africa’s progress.
President Uhuru Kenyatta has asked African leaders to prioritise and fast-track integration processes for the continent to achieve faster development.
He said the current crop of leaders need to follow the legacies of the founding fathers of African countries by uniting people.
Uhuru spoke last evening at the Presidential Palace in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, during a state dinner hosted in his honour by Prime Minister of Ethiopia Abiy Ahmed and President Sahle-Work Zewde.
President Uhuru called for the removal of all systemic barriers that hinder the blossoming of people-to-people relations in Africa.
“Our people should be let to travel throughout their continent freely without any hindrances. We are all brothers and sisters with a common heritage as Africans,” he said.
