Deputy President William Samoei Ruto will on Thursday, 3rd March visit the White House as part of his ongoing US tour.

In a statement, Ruto’s presidential campaign director of communications Hussein Mohammed noted that the DP will be visiting the White House for a meeting at the National Security Council.

“The Deputy President will later today visit the White House for a meeting at the National Security Council,” read part of the statement.

The visit to the White House comes a day after he held a meeting at the Karson Institute for Race, Peace and Social Justice at Loyola University in Maryland where he addressed members of the church and several local leaders.

Ruto also met US Assistant Secretary of State for Africa, Moll Phee in Washington DC whom she assured that Kenya will conduct free and credible elections in August.

DP Ruto together with his Kenya Kwanza team counterpart Musalia Mudavadi further committed to a peaceful election on their part while assuring the US of a steady and robust partner in the bilateral relations between the two countries.

The DP underscored Kenya’s position as an anchor state for peace and stability in the East and Horn of Africa region but cautioned against political and economic exclusion that threatens the country’s revered status in the region, two issues he termed as core in the August 2022 election.

Dr Ruto left the country on Sunday 27th February for a 10-day trip to the United States and the United Kingdom.
