[William Samoei Ruto, PhD @WilliamsRuto]

I had the honour and privilege of delivering the lead intervention during the G7+ working session on “Fostering New Partnerships and Rebuilding International Solidarity.”

Speaking on behalf of Africa, I called for a new paradigm in global relations- one grounded not in hierarchy, but in sovereign equality; not in aid alone, but in mutual benefit and shared prosperity.

Africa seeks neither dependency nor patronage. We seek partnership. Not as beneficiaries, but as equals. Not as spectators, but as co-authors of a shared future.

#G7

Officially received in Évian-les-Bains, France, for the 2026 G7 Summit by President @EmmanuelMacron.

Africa doesn’t have a liquidity problem. We have a risk mispricing challenge. 
Paying 10% interest for the same infrastructure G7 builds at 2% isn’t risk. It’s bias.  President Ruto will be asking the G7 to do more to fix the risk architecture and Unlock fair access to capital. #G7France #AfricaForward @ATI_ACA @_AfricanUnion @AfDB_Group @WorldBankAfrica @KeTreasury @ForeignOfficeKE

A routine shopping trip to 4U Supermarket in Wuse 2, Abuja, today offered a quiet reminder of how everyday commerce links people, cultures, and nations.

As I walked through the aisles, I noticed Kenyan tea ☕️ #KerichoGold among the products on display.

Its presence on the shelves in Abuja reflects the steady deepening of 🇰🇪-🇳🇬trade ties, and the growing visibility of Kenyan products within the Nigerian market.

For me, it was a reminder that behind every product is a chain of effort & exchange that quietly connects us.

For tea lovers, it is well worth picking up - a chance to enjoy one of Kenya’s finest exports.

I accompanied H.E. @WilliamsRuto, President of the Republic of Kenya, on his two day State Visit to South Africa at the invitation of H.E. President @CyrilRamaphosa.

The visit reaffirmed the strong partnership between Kenya and South Africa, with the two leaders agreeing to deepen cooperation in trade, investment, industrial development, education, transport, health and skills development.

A key outcome was the signing of six bilateral instruments covering trade facilitation, maritime cooperation, technical and vocational training, arts and culture, sports, and gender equality and women empowerment.

The two Presidents also underscored the importance of expanding bilateral trade, strengthening private sector engagement through the newly established Joint Business Council, advancing implementation of the AfCFTA, and promoting African-led solutions to peace, security and development challenges.

Kenya and South Africa remain committed to strengthening regional integration, economic transformation and a more effective and representative global governance system for the benefit of Africa and its people.
