Trust Deficit Remains Africa’s Biggest Threat, Says Kenyatta
NAIROBI, 5th May 2026 — Former President H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta has warned that a deficit of trust is the most pressing challenge undermining peace efforts across Africa. Speaking during the 2026 Johannesburg Arbitration Week, Kenyatta noted that while agreements can be reached in conflict mediation, sustaining them is far more complex due to broken trust between governments and citizens, and among communities.
Kenyatta made the remarks as part of the “Statesmen in Dialogue: Leadership and Dispute Resolution in Africa” high-level panel, which brought together former heads of state to share insights on mediation and governance. Drawing from his experience in South Sudan, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, he emphasized that governance, inclusion, and equitable resource distribution are central to resolving Africa’s conflicts.
He cautioned that fragmentation within continental institutions has weakened cohesion compared to the unity of early Pan-Africanism, stressing that “unity is not just an ideal, it is a necessity.”
The three-day forum, hosted by the Arbitration Foundation of Southern Africa (AFSA), convened arbitrators, policymakers, business leaders, and academics under the theme “Arbitration in a Fragmented Global Order: The Future of Trade, Investment, and Sustainable Development.”
High-level participants included former Presidents Joaquim Chissano (Mozambique), Dr. Goodluck Jonathan (Nigeria), and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (Liberia).
Kenyans deserve a government focused on building the nation, not caught up in politics of distraction. There are urgent challenges facing our country that require focus, seriousness, and decisive action.
Let us come together to build a modern, inclusive, and prosperous Kenya. We are ready to work with all who believe in change and are committed to fixing what is not working.
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has this evening arrived in Accra, Ghana ahead of the high-level Tana Forum on Security in Africa, a key continental platform that brings together African leaders and stakeholders to discuss African-led solutions to peace, governance, and regional security challenges.
Kenyatta joined the @TanaForum Board in 2024, becoming one of the few former African presidents entrusted with the strategic oversight of the institution. His appointment followed his expanding role as the African Union peace envoy and mediator in regional peace processes, particularly in the Horn of Africa and the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where he has been actively involved in peace negotiations and stability efforts.
Upon arrival in Ghana, Kenyatta was received by Colonel (Rtd) Shem Ishmailidza Amadi, Kenya’s High Commissioner to Ghana.
@ledamalekina What happened to you guy I used to think you got balls to lead Kenya in future.
Did you say 'we need that revenue to fund roads'?
So the only thing Kenya needs now according to you is roads? To where exactly?
Former President H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta yesterday held separate engagements at his Gatundu residence, hosting a delegation from the European Institute of Peace (EIP) led by Senior Advisor Hilde F. Johnson.
He also met with Freddy Nkurikiye, a Peace and Security Advisor to Faure Essozimna Gnassingbé, who paid him a courtesy call. Both meetings focused on ongoing peace efforts in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

H.E Rigathi Gachagua is unapologetically a Kikuyu supremist and a tribalist class A. But he makes a valid point when he calls out leaders from Northern Kenya and tells the truth about them. Hon Rigathi Gachagua is 💯 right when he says (a) Northern Kenya leaders are thieves who steal from their people and invest public funds in Nairobi, (b) Northern Kenyan leaders can't account for about Kshs 1 trillion given to the region since devolution started in 2013. (c) Northern Kenya leaders have not built world class institutions ie schools, hospitals etc and have EATEN CDF money. (d) Northern Kenyans leaders including MCAs are all domiciled in Nairobi and have homes, wives and children only in Nairobi and none in Northern Kenya. Look at Garissa and Marsabit. Where did Kshs 300 billion in devolution money go to? Leaders steal money left, right and centre and nothing happens. Gachagua is playing politics, but when he talks about Northern Kenyan leaders and how they have let down their people he is being truthful and i'm with him 💯.
@RodgersKipembe Uhuru & Kibaki have now become the measurables versus nonsense & wash wash hand outs https://t.co/tuEexplXBc after hii ujinga umetumiwa ngapi😂
I wish all my fellow citizens, in Kenya & the Diaspora, a wonderful Christmas 2025. May your celebrations be filled with joy, peace, and God’s abundant blessings.
I also urge all motorists to drive carefully and strictly adhere to all road safety measures to prevent accidents.
My brother Ruto!
Kenyans have made a decision that you are Wantam!
And there is nothing you can do about it!
No amount of hiring crowds, PR stunts, lies or deception that can change that fact!
Please accept and move on!
Wantam Is Wantam!
