Kenya's leader has challenged African Union nations to quit stalling institutional overhauls that demand zero funding, warning that paralysis disguised as fiscal prudence will ultimately damage continental interests more severely than immediate investment costs. William Ruto told reform committee chiefs gathered in Angola's capital that resistance cloaked in budget anxiety makes no sense when numerous transformative decisions require nothing beyond political will to execute.
The Kenyan head of state chairs an ad hoc panel examining eight priority adjustments spanning peace architecture revitalization, court operationalization, and parliamentary restructuring. Ruto pledged expert backing for recommendations while urging December feedback to prepare comprehensive proposals for February's continental summit, where all member governments can weigh proposed changes to strengthen Africa's global influence and boost coordination with partners like the European Union on digital transformation and climate adaptation.
