The group has already invested nearly $50 billion in African projects, which will be expanded with the new LNG facility and an East Africa refinery in Lamu, Kenya. Kenyan President William Ruto confirmed his attendance at the Lamu refinery groundbreaking, which will generate about 1,000 megawatts of power and supply 500MW to the Kenyan government. Five of Africa's eight invited presidents have confirmed their presence at the event, with Kenya securing the necessary land and clearing bureaucratic hurdles to expedite the process.",
