DAR ES SALAAM, July 11 (Xinhua) -- A Kenyan senior official has underscored the importance of a vibrant private sector in promoting economic growth at the national, regional and continental levels in Africa, said the East African Community (EAC), an intergovernmental organization of seven countries, in a statement.
The statement issued by the EAC headquarters in Tanzania's northern city of Arusha on Monday said the observation was made by Rebecca Miano, Kenya's cabinet secretary for EAC and arid and semi-arid lands, in her keynote address during the opening session of the 14th African Union High Level Private Sector Forum in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya.
