Governors from Nyanza's six counties are eyeing investments worth Sh134 billion as the region gears up to host its first international investments conference next month.
The sectors the governors are pushing to gain local and foreign sector investment include infrastructure, transport, energy, agriculture, housing, education tourism, and the blue economy, where they target Sh100 billion-worth investments.
They have set an ambitious target of securing 10 deals and are banking on the region's advantages to woo investors during the Nyanza International Investments Conference, which will be held between February 6 and 8.
President William Ruto and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga are expected to grace the event.
