  "account": "The Malaba One Stop Border Post (OSBP) generated over Ksh11 billion in revenue during the 2025/2026 financial year, surpassing its target of Ksh10,619,791,008.54 by 104 per cent. Over the past 12 years, the border post's revenue has increased by 643.5 per cent, from Ksh1,485,508,679 in the 2014/2015 financial year to the current amount. Malaba OSBP Station Manager Roderick Mulei credited the growth to increased trade volumes, improved cargo turnaround time, and enhanced customer experience. The border handles an average of 2,200 trucks daily, with 600 entering Kenya and 1,600 crossing into Uganda, while also accommodating 1,000 people daily. Mulei highlighted recent improvements such as solar power installation, a drive-through scanner, borehole rehabilitation, and service centre completion. However, he called for the completion of pending infrastructure projects, road loop construction, and OSBP expansion to ensure smoother traffic flow and efficient cargo management. Mulei also urged the government to address power supply concerns and improve the parking yard. National Assembly Regional Integration Committee Chairperson Irene Mayaka led an inspection to discuss measures for strengthening border points, enhancing security, revenue collection, and free movement of people and goods within the East African Community.",
