Acting Haitian Prime Minister Garry Conille has landed in Kenya for a four-day state visit.

Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi who is also the foreign affairs Cabinet Secretary welcomed Conille at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Thursday.

According to Mudavadi, Conille is expected to hold high-level bilateral talks with President William Ruto surrounding strengthening security cooperation and fostering partnerships that promote regional stability between Kenya and Haiti.

“This visit by H.E. Dr. Conille represents a significant moment in the deepening of diplomatic relations between our two countries, with both Kenya and Haiti eager to explore new avenues for collaboration in economic development and security partnerships,” Mudavadi stated.

The CS was accompanied by his Labour and Social Protection counterpart Dr Alfred Mutua, National Security Advisor, Dr. Monica Juma and Butere MP Tindi Mwale.

The visit by the Haitian prime minister comes days after the Caribbean nation's apparent massacre northwest of Port-au-Prince that left at least 70 people dead.

The attack, carried out early Thursday in the town of Pont Sonde, some 100 kilometres (60 miles) from the capital, also saw scores of houses and vehicles torched after gang members opened fire.
