This follows President Ruto’s visit to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates where he attended the ongoing 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28).
Ruto, whose visit was announced to run from November 30 to December 2, led African heads of state at the Africa Green Industrialization Initiative, which aims to accelerate and scale green industries and businesses across Africa.
His participation also led to Kenya bagging 4.5 billion US dollars, the equivalent of Ksh.680 billion, deals to support green industrialization in the country.
Ksh.225 billion will be used to finance green fertilizer projects, Ksh.90 billion to set up a data center in partnership with KenGen and Konza City, and Ksh.150 billion will be invested in a 300 megawatts geothermal project at Suswa.
Investments that are set to accelerate such projects are already happening.
