The State Department has revealed the highest-ranking U.S official who will represent the United States government in Uhuru's second-term inauguration.

That person will be the country's Ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec.

President Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will not be present at the Tuesday, November 28 ceremony. 

The names and titles of other U.S officials who will be part of the delegation were not revealed.

International diplomacy experts have interpreted the absence of high-powered individuals in the Trump administration in the inauguration as a manifestation of the reluctance of the U.S government to endorse President Uhuru's re-election.
