Uganda says it did not receive protocol services for Ruto abortive trip
Uganda’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs now says that the protocol department has no record of a request to provide protocol services to Kenya’s Deputy President William Ruto prior to his abortive trip.
In a statement, Uganda’s Foreign Affairs Minister Okello Oryem said that the Yoweri Museveni-led country was keen not to interfere with Kenya’s internal affairs.
“I was not informed by the chief of the protocol being requested by the Kenyan High Commission in Uganda to provide protocol services to the Deputy President. Our foreign policy is very clear that we don’t interfere in the internal affairs of any country whatsoever,” Hon Okello Oryem
“We have no authority, we have no power over Kenyan government, they have their own reasons why they prevented HE Ruto from coming to Uganda and that should be channeled to the Kenyan High Commission.”
The DP was blocked from leaving the country for Uganda on Monday because he allegedly lacked clearance from State House.
