Kenyan media sources have denied the accuracy of a circulating statement claiming that the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) supports Kenyan President William Ruto’s initiative to host leaders of the Sudanese Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia. They confirmed that the statement is not related to IGAD.
According to the Kenyan website Kenyanz, IGAD issued an official statement clarifying that the circulating statement, which claims to support the Kenyan president’s meetings with RSF leaders, is forged and does not reflect their official stance.
In the same context, a report published by The Kenya Times stated that IGAD reiterated its commitment to a peaceful resolution to the Sudanese crisis, emphasizing that it does not take sides in the conflict. It also confirmed that any statements or documents not issued through its official channels do not represent its true position.
