The King will end his state visit to Kenya by sitting down with faith leaders to hear about their work in promoting peace, security and development.

Charles will join a meeting of religious leaders from the Coast Interfaith Council of Clerics (CICC) gathered at Mombasa Memorial Cathedral.

For more than two decades the CICC has been working in the areas of peacebuilding, child protection, preventing and countering violent extremism and public participation and governance.

The clerics are from organisations that represent Christianity, Hindu, Muslim and African traditional faiths working together to tackle pressing issues in the region.

Later, the King will view some of the cathedral’s architectural features before meeting its choir and will unveil a plaque to mark his visit.

Charles and Camilla are coming to the end of a five-day state visit to Kenya, their first to a Commonwealth country since the King’s accession to the throne.

In a banquet address delivered on Tuesday evening, Charles spoke about the “abhorrent and unjustifiable acts of violence” committed against Kenyans during their fight for independence from Britain, but stopped short of an apology.

Kenya’s President William Ruto praised the King’s “exemplary courage” in shedding light on “uncomfortable truths”, but described the colonial reaction to African struggles as “monstrous in its cruelty” and said “much remains to be done in order to achieve full reparations”.
