Tuesday, February 6, 2024 - President William Ruto has revealed why he loves working with Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi.
While speaking in the Western
region, Ruto heaped praises on Mudavadi, revealing that he is among the most
dedicated government officials.
Ruto noted that Musalia has
transformed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a short while.
The Head of State revealed that
Mudavadi's experience and expertise in the docket have won hearts globally.
Ruto told the audience that when
he is not travelling outside for international engagements, most foreign
Presidents prefer meeting Mudavadi to his own Deputy, Rigathi Gachagua.
"We all agree that we have the best diplomat in Musalia Mudavadi. This is because of how he executes his mandate.
"When I am a little bit held up, most countries request me to send
Musalia Mudavadi because he will perfectly deliver," Ruto stated.
Mudavadi assumed the role of
Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary in October 2023 taking over from Alfred Mutua
whose tenure was characterised by controversies.
The Kenya Kwanza banked on
Mudavadi's experience to save the face of the docket which was slowly turning
into a nightmare for Kenya.
Four months down the line, Ruto
noted that Mudavadi had sealed several deals including during his recent trip
to the US where he secured a deal on the diaspora bond structuring deal which
he argued was key to economic transformation.
“We are working on a secure bond
that will offer better returns than interest rates in the source markets for
our diaspora remittances," Mudavadi said.
"The bond will enable the
government to diversify its public debt mix, reducing the country’s exposure to
costly commercial debt," he added.
