“Your election is a recognition of your commitment to the development of Zambia into a peaceful and prosperous nation. We applaud all Zambians for protecting and nurturing democracy,” he said.
President Kibaki said it was his desire that cordial relations between the two nations should be further strengthened for the mutual benefit of both countries.

“I want to avail myself this opportunity to express my conviction that the friendly and cooperative relations existing between our two countries will grow further in scope and strength,” he said.
