Kenya’s President-elect William Ruto and his main rival in the recent election Raila Odinga are scheduled to meet US Senator Chris Coon who is on a five-country Africa visit.

The US has not yet congratulated Mr Ruto following the official declaration that he had won last week’s election. Mr Odinga has said he does not recognise the result.

Senator Coon and his delegation will also meet with President Uhuru Kenyatta.

The senator arrived in the capital, Nairobi, on Wednesday night and will hold talks with the three leaders on “health, security, and economic prosperity”, the US embassy said.

The delegation will also meet conservationists, health providers and organisations working to empower girls.
