The pastor of state for Foreign Affairs, Henry Okello Oryem has said government has no record about Kenya’s delegate president, William Ruto’s cut short visit to Uganda.
“The convention division which is driven by the head of convention has no record at all that there was a solicitation for us to give convention administrations to His Excellency William Ruto. I was not educated by the Chief of convention,” said Oryem during a news meeting in Kampala.
On Monday this week, Ruto was significantly halted from loading onto a trip to Uganda by movement authorities in Kenya.
The authorities said he had not looked for leeway from President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Ruto countered that he didn’t require Kenyatta’s authorization to fly out adding that in the course of recent years that he has been delegate president, he had not requested that anybody for consent fly out. Ruto said he needed to go to Uganda on a private visit.
Oryem discredited charges and allegations connecting Uganda to the current political stalemate in Kenya adding that the country’s international strategy doesn’t take into consideration impedance in the inside issues of any country except if it’s welcomed.
“He [Ruto] was not forestalled by Uganda. We have no position. We have no forces since that is the purview of the Kenyan government. The motivation behind why he was kept from coming to Uganda, in the event that it at any point occurred, is something that you ought to ask the Kenyan High Commissioner,” he said.
