Afrexim Bank hosts sub-sovereign conference in Kisumu

Kenya is set to sign various developmental agreements with the Africa Export Import Bank to revitalize the government’s bottom up agenda. Speaking at the opening of the fourth African Sub-Sovereign Governments Network investment conference in Kisumu, president William Ruto indicated that the funds will not only go towards setting up industrial parks across the country but also support the agricultural value chain to enhance food security. And as Laura Otieno reports, the clarion call at the conference was heavy on strengthening devolved units in order to foster sustainable development.
