President Uhuru Kenyatta jets back from Cuba

President Uhuru Kenyatta is back in Kenya after a key visit to Cuba that is set to strengthen ties between the two countries.

The President and his delegation arrived at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on Monday after concluding his 5-day trip to the Carribean island nation on Sunday evening.

During the visit, Mr Kenyatta sought to revive previously signed health agreements whose implementation was delayed. The visit also focused on issues dealing with trade and heritage.

The move has paved way for Cuba to send 100 medical specialists to Kenya where all counties will receive at least two of each.

50 doctors from Kenya will also be sent to Cuba for specialised training.

He was received at the airport by Deputy President William Ruto, Chief of Defence Forces General Samson Mwathethe and Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko among others.

He then inspected a guard of honour mounted by a detachment of the Kenya Air Force.
