Ruto Offers Uganda Stake in Kenya Pipeline Company.

President Ruto announced plans to sell up to 65 percent of Kenya's stake in the Kenya Pipeline Company, keeping 35 percent for strategic control, with an IPO set for completion by March 31, 2026. The move invites Uganda and other East African investors to buy in, aiming to boost efficiency like past successes with Kenya Commercial Bank and Safaricom. It supports bigger goals like pipeline extensions to Rwanda and Congo, highway upgrades, and railway advances to cut costs and create jobs. While some see shared prosperity ahead, critics worry about losing control of a key asset amid economic pressures.
