Uhuru will also be attending an event at West London’s Kew Gardens, to celebrate the Kenya-UK Year of Climate Action, and Kenya’s leadership on climate change in Africa ahead of COP26.
He will then be hosted by UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab in an event at Mansion House, in London’s historic financial district.
The President will also be focusing on Kenya-UK health partnerships in dealing with Covid-19, as well as on cancer prevention and treatment.
Uhuru will be joined by senior members of the Kenyan and UK governments throughout the programme, with side discussions on defence, the environment, foreign affairs, health, and finance.
