King Charles and Queen Camilla toured East Af-rica’s oldest mosque and an ancient fort on Friday as they concluded a four-day state visit to Kenya marked by questions about Britain’s colonial legacy. Charles met Muslim, Christian, Hindu and African traditional faith leaders in the coastal city of Mombasa and toured Fort Jesus, built by the Portuguese in the 16th century. Heavy rain prevented the royal couple from riding an electric tuk-tuk between venues.
The visit, Charles’s first to a former British colony since ascending to the throne in September last year, focused on the two countries’ close cooperation on economic development, climate change and security issues.—AFP
