Congratulations to our colleague Dr. Lul Riek @rieklul30 on his appointment as Special Representative of the @AfricaCDC & Regional Advisor for Eastern Africa Regional Coordination Centre (EA-RCC),based in Nairobi, Kenya. Wishing you successful mission. @ltsague @Dr_JeanKaseya


Held a bilateral meeting with officials from the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa-CDC) to strengthen regional collaboration and advance our health security framework. Together with Dr. Raji Tajudeen, representing Director General Dr. Jean Kaseya and Dr. Lul Riek, Special Representative and Regional Advisor for the Eastern Africa Regional Coordinating Centre, we reaffirmed our shared commitment to the Africa CDC agenda and stronger regional partnerships. Since 2017, Kenya has hosted the Eastern Africa Regional Coordinating Centre, coordinating efforts across 14 member states, a role that underscores our leadership in regional preparedness and response. Our discussions focused on building resilient, self-sufficient health systems, aligned with H.E President William Ruto's vision, particularly in advancing local manufacturing of health products as a pillar of health security. We also reviewed progress in emergency preparedness, diagnostics and local production of essential medical supplies. Kenya remains committed to this agenda through innovation and collaboration and to finalizing the Memorandum of Understanding on land allocation and financial support for the establishment of the regional centre. I was joined in the meeting by Principal Secretary for Public Health and Professional Standards Ms. Mary Muthoni.
