As the spring season sets down at Atlanta, Georgia in United States, the country which has eagerly waited for Kenyan president Wiliam Ruto has finally welcomed him.
The president who arrived in the country at around 10am on May 20, commenced his visit to Atlanta with his first stop being at the Carter Presidential Library and Museum.
Built in the ‘80s, the Carter Center and adjoining Jimmy Carter Presidential Library & Museum sit on a 35-acre park east of Downtown Atlanta.
Ruto who was accompanied by First Lady Rachel Ruto was received warmly at the Carter Centre and showed into the building that was written ‘Carter Presidential Centre’.
The centre is surrounded by greenery and water and a nondenominational chapel is close by.
The Carter Center which is located at 453 John Lewis Freedom Parkway, has permanent exhibits that highlight Former president Jimmy Carter who served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977 to 1981.
Carter who is still alive, quietly celebrated his 99th birthday on October 1 last year, and last appeared in public on November 29 to attend the funeral of his wife, Rosalynn Carter.
Carter rose to become the 39th president of the United States.
He made a mark after leaving office through decades of philanthropic activity fighting disease, negotiating conflicts, monitoring elections and building houses for the disadvantaged.
He was awarded the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize for work in finding peaceful solutions to international conflicts, advancing democracy and human rights, and promoting economic and social development.
