AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Tata Chemicals Exit: President William Ruto has ordered Indian soda-ash giant Tata Chemicals to stop operations and exit Lake Magadi, saying Kenya hasn’t gained enough local value and that new investors will take over; Tata says it will engage through legal and regulatory channels. Court & Governance: The High Court quashed an Attorney-General advisory clearing a fibre-optic tender linked to Mary Wambui, saying the AG overstepped EACC’s role. Health Sector: Nurses’ strike continues to cripple public hospitals, with unions and government still deadlocked over the 2017 CBA, pay and arrears. Public Finance: Kenya’s public sector wage bill is projected to rise by Sh40bn to Sh1.287tn, squeezing room for development spending. Trade & Jobs: Kenya welcomed the US AGOA extension to Dec 2028, urging exporters to use the certainty to expand beyond apparel. Competition & Markets: IMD’s 2026 competitiveness ranking puts South Africa first in Africa and Kenya second, with infrastructure still a weak spot. Digital Privacy: Meta’s AI smart glasses face a fresh lawsuit alleging footage reviewed by contractors in Kenya was used to train AI without proper consent. Roads & Small Trade: KeNHA issued 30-day notices to traders encroaching on the Nanyuki–Doldol road reserve ahead of a KSh5.5bn upgrade.
