President William Ruto is back to his frequent trips out of the country to Germany after being grounded with demonstrations that rocked the country calling for his resignation.
According to reports, President Ruto is set to leave for Germany next week after landing in Kenya from his high profile China trip just after when kenyans questioned the importance of his numerous trips out of the country.
However, Reports indicate that Ruto is set to fly to Germany in a bid to finalise a deal between Kenya and Germany on migration agreement that could open up 250,000 job opportunities for Kenyan workers in various sectors.

This deal will see both skilled and semi-skilled Kenyans to be able to access employment in Europe’s largest economy by providing an easy path towards ensuring that both countries address their labout market needs.
For Kenya, this is a golden opportunity to reduce unemployment, while for Germany, it presents a solution to the country’s labour shortage. The deal aims to protecting the rights and welfare of Kenyan workers in Germany, a critical point in negotiations led by the International Labour Organization (ILO).
Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz is expected to receive President Ruto in Berlin on Friday. During the meeting, the two leaders will sign the final version of the migration agreement, sealing what has been described as a historic deal.
