South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has dismissed suggestions of rivalry between Kenya and South Africa, describing the two countries as strategic partners with a shared vision for Africa.
The South African Head of State said that the two countries do not want to overplay their importance in Africa, but they have an elevated voice to influence outcomes.
“We are not rivals. South Africa and Kenya never see ourselves as rivals. We are complementary and we have a special strategic relationship that speaks to friendship, respect and equality,” said Ramaphosa.
