Amb. Rwamucyo was among six new envoys who presented their letters of credence to President William Ruto. The others included Chiranjib Sarker (Bangladesh), retired Lt. General Peter Kakowou Lavahun (Sierra Leone), Anthony Louis Kon (South Sudan), Kan Yaw Kiong (Singapore), and Erika Álvarez Rodríguez (Dominican Republic).
During the ceremony, Amb. Rwamucyo expressed his commitment to deepening the longstanding relations between Rwanda and Kenya, noting the historical bonds of friendship and cooperation rooted in shared values and a collective vision for regional peace and prosperity.
'It is my sincere hope that I shall succeed in my endeavours to further enhance the relations between our two nations to greater heights,' he said.
Rwanda and Kenya enjoy robust bilateral relations, with cooperation spanning trade, infrastructure development, education, security, and vibrant people-to-people exchanges. Amb. Rwamucyo acknowledged Kenya's role as a strategic partner in both bilateral frameworks and regional blocs such as the East African Community (EAC).
'As I begin my mission here in Kenya, I look forward to engaging with stakeholders across government, the private sector, and civil society in pursuit of our shared goals,' he added.
President Ruto, in welcoming the new envoys, reaffirmed Kenya's commitment to strengthening diplomatic ties and regional collaboration.
Addressing Amb. Rwamucyo directly, the President said, 'Congratulations, High Commissioner. I look forward to working with you in promoting the bonds of friendship and elevating the mutual aspirations of the people of our two nations.'
Amb. Rwamucyo replaces Ambassador Martin Ngoga, whose letter of recall was also presented during the ceremony. He previously served as Rwanda's High Commissioner to India and as the country's Permanent Representative to the United Nations.
Amb. Ngoga is now Rwanda's Permanent Representative to the United Nations.
