President William Ruto has said the government is engaging other African states to nurture mutually beneficial relations.
Speaking during the official opening of the Kenya Embassy in Dakar, Senegal on Thursday, the President assured investors that the government would support them to access investment opportunities across the continent.
"We will continue to push the limits for our investors and business people to access more markets in Africa," he said.
The Kenyan chancery in Senegal is the first in Francophone Africa and will serve the region.
The President announced that Kenya will open an embassy in Rabat, Morocco, later in the year.
He said that Africa will account for 25 per cent of the world population by 2050, a market Kenya must plan and strategies for.
He was accompanied by Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing'oei and Kenyan Ambassador to Senegal Purity Muhindi.
Ruto also met Kenyans living in Senegal.
He told them that the Embassy will help ease services for them and be their link to the government of Senegal and the private sector.
