President William Ruto has said Kenya will always answer the call to promote peace and security in East Africa.
East African countries have a collective responsibility to work together to end conflicts and violence that deny the region the space to prosper, he added.
He was speaking on Wednesday at Embakasi Garrison when he flagged off the Kenyan contingent to the Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) under the auspices of the East African Community Regional Force (EACRF).
