French President Emmanuel Macron Urges Participants at Africa Forward Summit to Avoid Speaking Loudly

French President Emmanuel Macron has urged participants at the ‘Africa Forward Summit’ held in Nairobi, Kenya, to refrain from speaking in a loud and aggressive tone. He noted that speakers at the venue have been using forceful and loud voices, which has hindered clear communication and characterized this behavior as “disrespectful.”

Macron is in Kenya to attend this summit, which brings together leaders from over 20 African nations, key figures from the business sector, and young entrepreneurs. France is actively seeking to strengthen its ties with the African continent.
