The President is likely to meet his predecessor Former President Uhuru Kenyatta who landed in DRC on Friday to attend the same event.<\/p>\n

This will be the first time President Ruto and Former President Uhuru will share the same podium since the Kenya Kwanza regime ascended into power.<\/p>\n

They last sat next to each other during the inauguration of President Ruto in Kasarani on September 13, 2022.<\/p>\n

Tshisekedi will be sworn in this Saturday at the Martyrs Stadium in Kinshasa.<\/p>\n

President-elect Tshisekedi garnered more than 70 per cent of the total vote cast during the general elections.<\/p>\n

The election took place in December 2023 where he secured his re-election for a second term.<\/p>\n

Uhuru as the Facilitator of the EAC-led Nairobi Peace Process was accompanied by Uganda\u2019s Vice President Jessica Alupo.<\/p>\n
