Mudavadi Courts Maersk Investment in Lamu Port and Logistics Sector

Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has urged Maersk to bolster its investment in Kenya's maritime and logistics sectors. During a meeting with APM Terminals President for Africa and Europe, Igor Van Den Essen, Mudavadi explored avenues for strengthening the partnership in maritime infrastructure, logistics, and digital trade.

He believes that Maersk's involvement in the development of the Dangote East Africa Oil Refinery in Lamu could accelerate the LAPSSET Corridor and enhance regional trade and connectivity. Mudavadi emphasized the importance of Kenya's pursuit of partnerships that can bring in capital, technology, innovation, and expertise, while also fostering job creation and expanding business opportunities.

He further encouraged Maersk to capitalize on the opportunities arising from the commencement of the Dangote East Africa Oil Refinery project in Lamu, which is poised to be a major catalyst for regional growth and development.
