Lead image for Mudavadi heads to Angola to push for stronger African conflict resolution.
Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has embarked on a mission to strengthen Kenya’s role in conflict prevention and resolution across Africa.
Mudavadi left the country for Luanda, Angola, where he will represent President William Ruto at the 21st Extraordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union (AU) scheduled for August 30, 2026.
According to a statement from his office, the meeting will focus on strengthening mechanisms for conflict prevention and resolution on the continent.
The discussions are expected to consider practical measures to improve Africa’s capacity to prevent, manage and resolve conflicts, as countries seek stronger African-led solutions to challenges facing the continent.
The Luanda meeting comes at a time when Kenya is seeking to strengthen its engagement within the AU and its peace and security architecture.
The statement said Kenya’s participation will provide an opportunity to advance its longstanding commitment to peaceful conflict resolution, regional stability and stronger African-led mechanisms for addressing the continent’s challenges.
