“Pay attention to Africa.”

President Ruto tells G7 leaders that the future of global growth will be shaped in Africa, home to the workforce, market and critical minerals powering tomorrow’s economy. The call is partnership, not extraction.

Held productive discussions with Norway’s Finance Minister, Jens Stoltenberg, on opportunities for collaboration between Norway’s sovereign wealth fund and Kenya’s National Infrastructure Fund (NIF), including the sharing of best practices in sovereign wealth management and exploring avenues for investment in strategic infrastructure projects.

Kenya is pursuing sustainable, long-term investments in critical infrastructure, including ports, airports, roads, energy and agriculture. This includes our ambitious plan to generate 10,000 megawatts of electricity to power industrialisation, create jobs and drive inclusive economic growth while safeguarding prosperity for future generations.

We further explored opportunities for cooperation in green energy, climate finance and carbon markets as part of our shared commitment to sustainable development and economic transformation.

Met with Norfund Chief Executive Officer, Tellef Thorleifsson, in Oslo and discussed opportunities to deepen cooperation in sectors that are central to Kenya’s transformation agenda, including renewable energy, affordable housing and strategic investments that support green growth, industrialisation and economic transformation.

Strategic collaboration with institutions such as Norfund is critical to mobilising capital, accelerate infrastructure development, unlock growth and improve the quality of life for our people.

As we continue positioning Kenya as a gateway to Africa’s 1.4 billion consumers under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), we welcome quality investments that create jobs, drive industrialisation and advance sustainable development.

We are advancing Kenya’s maritime and blue economy agenda through cooperation with Norway, exploring opportunities for investment, knowledge exchange, skills development, technology transfer and job creation across the maritime economy, including opportunities for Kenyan maritime professionals and seafarers to work with established Norwegian maritime companies.

We are also exploring new shipping routes to boost trade, strengthen supply chain resilience, enhance connectivity between the ports of Mombasa and Lamu and Norwegian ports, and expand our shipbuilding capacity.

Met with the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association in Oslo, Norway, where we further discussed opportunities in the blue economy and fisheries sector, as well as cooperation on green shipping, ocean sustainability and decarbonisation, including the development of green trade corridors between Kenya and Norway to support trade, skills development and the energy transition.

We also welcome the commitment by Wilhelmsen Ship Management and other Norwegian shipping companies to employ 1,000 Kenyan seafarers by 2030, including 120 by the end of this year.

The United Nations Security Council, entrusted with maintaining international peace and security, was conceived in the aftermath of the Second World War for a world that no longer exists. While its purpose remains indispensable, its structure has not kept pace with the profound transformations that have reshaped our world.

Africa, a continent that frequently occupies the Council’s agenda, still holds no permanent seat at the table where decisions affecting its future are made.

There can be no greater paradox than a global peace architecture that excludes the very regions where peacebuilding and conflict prevention are most urgently needed. Reform is therefore no longer a question of fairness alone; it is a question of effectiveness, legitimacy, and relevance.

At the Oslo Forum 2026 High-Level Public Event, we reaffirmed Africa’s rightful claim to a meaningful voice and equitable representation in global decision-making. Africa does not seek to remain a perpetual item on the international agenda; it seeks to be an equal partner in shaping our shared future.

[William Samoei Ruto, PhD @WilliamsRuto]

The European Parliament remains a key partner in fostering stronger relations and cooperation between Kenya, Africa and the European Union.

Met with President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, and discussed strengthening Kenya-European Union relations for our mutual benefit.

We welcomed progress under the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) and the EU-Kenya Digital Partnership, particularly on the Digital Dialogue and Data Adequacy process, which will strengthen digital trade, attract investment and enhance Kenya’s position as a leading digital hub.

We also urged support for the conclusion and implementation of the Cross-Border Trade in Services framework to unlock new opportunities for Kenyan and European businesses, leveraging Kenya’s young, highly educated and tech-savvy workforce.

Beyond trade and investment, we called for reforms to the global financial architecture to improve access to affordable financing and ensure fairer treatment of developing economies.

We further urged support for reforms of global governance institutions, including the United Nations Security Council, to ensure a more inclusive, equitable and representative international order.

Africa is the opportunity of this century, with the resources, talent, and potential to drive global growth. And if Africa is the opportunity, Kenya is the gateway, offering access to Africa’s 1.4 billion people and key global markets.

Addressed the Kenya–Belgium Business Forum in Brussels, where we championed a new Africa-Europe partnership founded on sovereign equality, mutual benefit, and shared prosperity.

We showcased investment opportunities in agribusiness, logistics, technology, clean energy, and the circular economy, and invited Belgian and Benelux businesses to partner with Kenya in value addition, manufacturing, innovation, and sustainable industrialisation.

I also officiated the launch of the Kenya–Benelux Chamber of Commerce, a permanent bridge connecting Kenyan enterprise with the investors, innovators, and markets of Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.

Africa is the opportunity. Kenya is the gateway. Let us build stronger partnerships that expand trade, create jobs, and unlock shared prosperity for our peoples.

[William Samoei Ruto, PhD @WilliamsRuto]

Held fruitful discussions with His Majesty King Philippe of Belgium on strengthening Kenya-Belgium relations and expanding cooperation in trade, investment, infrastructure and tourism.

I thanked Belgium for being the leading destination for Kenyan coffee exports and highlighted the growing opportunities for trade and investment between our two countries. I also briefed His Majesty on the outcomes of the Kenya-Belgium Business Forum and our efforts to create an enabling environment for business and investment.

We discussed opportunities to enhance regional connectivity through the extension of the Northern Corridor road and rail network to Kinshasa, strengthening transport links between the Port of Mombasa and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

We further discussed cooperation in tourism and I invited His Majesty to make a maiden visit to Kenya and experience the world-renowned wildebeest migration.

At Got Ne Lel Girls’ Senior School, Tinderet, Nandi County, for their Thanksgiving Event to celebrate a good performance in KCSE in 2025.

The KCSE results tell a powerful story of progress: the mean score has grown from 3.863 in 2020 to 7.733 in 2025, lifting the school from a D+ mean grade to B-. That steady climb reflects consistent hard work and the vision of nurturing holistic individuals ready for higher education and a dynamic world. The impact is clearest in the number of students qualifying for university. Those attaining C+ and above rose from just 4 students in 2020 to 48 students in 2025 (4.3% to 33.8%). This year, the school also celebrates the school’s first A- grades with 2 students.

Indeed, Bidii Huleta Ushindi.

I congratulated the students, staff, and parents for working together in making that motto real. I asked the class of 2026 to be intentional and scale even higher .
