\u201cYour Excellency and Dear Mr. President-Elect,\u200b\u200b\u200b on behalf of the Government and the People of Kenya and on my own behalf, I convey to Your Excellency and through you to the Government and the People of the Republic of Ghana my heartfelt congratulations on your successful election as the President of the Republic of Ghana\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour Excellency, I must at the outset commend Ghana for the conduct of the just-ended elections which clearly demonstrated your country\u2019s democratic maturity and institutional integrity, factors critical to the sustainable stability and development of your great country\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

While highlighting the strong ties between Kenya and Ghana over the years, Ruto stated that the former president\u2019s victory is a testament to the trust and confidence the people of Ghana have in him.<\/p>\n

\u201cUndoubtedly, Your Excellency\u2019s decisive victory in these historic elections is a manifest affirmation of the trust and confidence that the great people of Ghana have in your leadership, vision and dedication to advancing Ghana\u2019s development and prosperity\u201d he emphasised.<\/p>\n

He affirmed that the two countries would continue to work together to deepen their cooperation.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur nations share a deep-rooted friendship and a commitment to regional cooperation and mutual prosperity. Indeed, it is my desire to further enhance and consolidate this cooperation at bilateral, regional and international foras in areas of mutual interest for the socio-economic development of our peoples and continent\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Ruto extended his best wishes to the new leader, who will be sworn in on January 7, 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish Your Excellency good health, happiness, prosperity and well-being of the brotherly people of Ghana. Please accept, your Excellency, the assurances of my highest esteem\u201d.<\/p>\n
