23.11.2025 ⇢ The Day Ruto Affirmed Uganda's Sea Access
⌨Kenyan media on November 23, 2025, focused on President Ruto's visit to Uganda, addressing claims of a rift over Indian Ocean access, a topic that began with a report on Uganda buying a stake in a Kenyan parastatal in the late morning. By early afternoon, Ruto had affirmed Uganda's uninterrupted access to the sea, dismissing "naysayers" as reported by Capital FM. This narrative was reinforced with announcements of an SGR extension to Kampala, Rwanda, and DRC in early 2026. Later in the day, Uganda was invited to buy shares in the Kenya Pipeline Company, signaling a push for regional integration.
