  • The countries would also work together in matters of foreign affairs and security operations.

    "Burundi has stabilised and enhanced its security, it's now safe to do business in the Country and we welcome foreign investors especially from Kenya to invest," Ndayishimiye noted. 

    The two countries will also work on sports culture and heritage as well as on the prioritisation of enhancing education standards in the region.

    Uhuru further encouraged the people-to-people relations between the two countries, by enhancing trade investments.

    He observed that there were channels to expand of the volume of trade that needed to be exploited.

    "We hope the MOUs we have signed will be implemented as soon as possible, we are committed to improving the business climate in our countries.
