President William Ruto on Monday broke protocol and decided to drive himself in a yellow electric car.
When attending Africa's first climate summit, Ruto put aside his official vehicle and motorcade.
His chase car and the motorcade were also electric cars that followed him closely behind.
At around 8:30 am, the President left State House, buckled up, and steadily drove to Kenyatta Avenue.
He later joined Uhuru Highway and proceeded to City Hall Way and made his entry at KICC.
Just like a usual driver, the Presided parked his car and alighted ready to open the summit.
The five-day event is happening at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre.
The inaugural Africa Climate Summit, championed by Ruto aims to address the increasing exposure to climate change and its associated costs, both globally and particularly in Africa.
The summit is expected to also look into ways of helping African countries vulnerable to adverse effects of climate change cope with the same.
It will also serve as a platform to inform, frame, and influence commitments, pledges, and outcomes, ultimately leading to the development of the Nairobi Declaration.
Over 30,000 delegates including over 25 heads of state and government are expected to attend the event
