Kenya is set to secure a crucial financial deal with the United Kingdom, which will open the door for the construction of the mega 438-acre Nairobi Railway City.
Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, who was in London for the Sudan Conference, led a high-powered Kenyan delegation in negotiations between the Ministry of National Treasury and UK Export Finance (UKEF).
The deal, according to a statement from the Prime Cabinet Secretary's office, brings Kenya one step closer to achieving the ambitious infrastructure project, as the Railway City has been envisioned as a modern transit-orientated urban hub that will redefine Nairobi's central transport and commercial landscape.
Groundwork is now set to begin following the deal, as billions in investment have been unlocked to expand rail and bus connectivity and drive economic growth in the country's capital.
