U.S. First Lady Dr. Jill Biden is expected to visit Kenya in February according to Foreign Affairs and Diaspora Affairs Cabinet Secretary (CS) Dr. Alfred Mutua.
Dr. Alfred Mutua made the revelation on Citizen TV’s JKLive show on Wednesday, 18 January 2023.
Mutua made the announcement in response to a question posed by show host Jeff Koinange who asked the CS whether Kenya expects to host any high-profile dignitaries in the coming months.
“Next month, we will get high-profile leaders coming to our country.
The spouse of the US president will be here in this country,” said Mutua though he did not reveal the purpose of the visit.
“We will get other leaders coming to our country in the next few months.”
According to Mutua, Kenya is an attractive destination for foreign dignitaries owing to its democratic stance which provides an environment that respects human rights and fundamental freedoms.

“Kenya’s place is high right now. I was invited to the G7 as Kenya’s foreign minister with other ministers because of Kenya’s place in the world and the role we are playing in the peace process because of the democracy that we have,” he said.
However, the purpose of the visit was not revealed.
The visit by U.S. First Lady Dr. Jill Biden is expected to be a significant event for Kenya as it continues to solidify its place on the world stage and strengthen its relationship with the United States.
