We accept your apology: Tanzanian MP tells Ruto

While addressing his colleagues in the Tanzanian Parliament, the lawmaker pointed out the importance of the mutual relations shared between the nations and called for the mending of relationships. 

He added that it's common for countries that work together to disagree on certain issues, but such differences shouldn't undermine a relationship that has been built over many years. 

"Naomba nichukue nafasi hii kupongeza kwa haraka. Nimesoma ya kwamba rafiki yetu, kaka yetu Rais Ruto akituomba radhi sisi nasi tunapokea. Hii ni kwa sababu hakuna binadamu kamilifu. Inawezekana sisi tunalo tatizo na inabidi tusameheane ili maisha isonge kwa sababu binadamu lazima tukoseane," Zahor said. 

"Ningeomba sana ambapo pale sisi kama bunge tumejikwaa lakini kweli kwamba tunahitajiana kama marafiki, mataifa yaliyo pamoja na hatuwezi kufanya kazi bila changamoto," he added. 

During the National Prayer Breakfast at Safari Park on Wednesday, President Ruto apologised to neighbouring countries Uganda and Tanzania for any wrongdoing.

"Our neighbours from Tanzania, if we have wronged you in any way, forgive us. Our friends from Uganda, if there is anything that Kenyans have done that is not right, we want to apologise," Ruto noted.

The tiff between the two nations ensued over the deportation of Kenyan activists who had visited the East African nation to witness the hearing of opposition leader Tundu Lissu.

The incident spilt into a bitter exchange between the two East African countries as their citizens engaged in a tussle over regional politics.
