The plane carrying the President with his entourage touched down at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airports shortly before midnight. Before leaving London, President Kenyatta held bilateral meetings with Pakistani Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and President Yoweri Museveni. Kenya was chosen to champion the development of ‘blue’ economic growth through the Commonwealth Blue Charter adopted by CHOGM 2018. President Kenyatta is a strong supporter of intra-Africa trade and is championing the adoption of the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). At the Commonwealth summit, President Kenyatta said the AfCFTA provides an opportunity that would enable Africa to create prosperity and create jobs for its youth.
