United States is not supporting any political formation in the country, US ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec has said. Godec on Thursday said that America enjoys excellent relations with Kenya and dismissed claims that they are supporting a political party or politician in the country.

To demonstrate the cordial relations, Godec stated President Uhuru Kenyatta will next month attend the first US-African Leaders Summit at the invitation of US President Barack Obama. Speaking during the 238th US independence day celebrations, the ambassador reiterated US commitment to ensure Kenya addresses its challenges dismissing as rumours allegations of taking sides in the country’s leadership.
