President Uhuru Kenyatta has asked African leaders to prioritise and fast-track integration processes for the continent to achieve faster development. Uhuru spoke last evening at the Presidential Palace in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, during a state dinner hosted in his honour by Prime Minister of Ethiopia Abiy Ahmed and President Sahle-Work Zewde. President Uhuru called for the removal of all systemic barriers that hinder the blossoming of people-to-people relations in Africa. Addis Ababa belongs to Kenyans just like Nairobi belongs to Ethiopians. PM Abiy said Kenya is a key development partner of Ethiopia and thanked President Uhuru for the visit which has renewed the longstanding friendly relations between the two East African nations.
