President Uhuru Kenyatta asked South Sudan President Salva Kiir to help the country by providing services to the people rather waste alot of money to pay for hotels and favors.  
The Kenyan President was speaking at Kenya's National Prayer Breakfast Conference which was attended by South Sudan President Salva Kiir.

South Sudan is one of them, you know that we are fighting in South Sudan up to now amongst ourselves…The result is innocent lives have been lost. I want to back you in that initiate that the president took to bring you two together should also go far to reach us in South Sudan.”
President Salva Kiir also asked for support from the East African community in order to overcome the crisis South Sudan is facing.  
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta completed by saying that “Leadership is not about who is the President but it’s about services to your people and the people of South Sudan desperately need peace in order for them to get services that they fought for many years and Kenya stands ready my brother to work with you and all your colleagues to help the people of South Sudan achieve that long waited for objectives of a strong, united and prosperous South Sudan, and ultimately as you have said we join with Kenya and all other East African countries and become one great nation in the service of God and God’s people.”
