    Mwalimu Karua was in his thirties then, and tributes said he danced for joy on getting the news that Kenya was independent.

    President William Ruto has detailed how the Ksh.2 trillion Dangote East Africa Oil Refinery in Lamu County came to be, saying the project was conceived as part of efforts to shield Kenya and the wider region from disruptions in the global oil supply chain.

    Speaking to the media on Thursday evening at State House, Mombasa, a day after the groundbreaking ceremony in Lamu, Ruto said the idea gained momentum after Kenya experienced challenges in accessing fuel during disruptions linked to tensions in the Middle East.

    “Huu ni mradi ambao nilifikiria kwa muda. Na kwa sababu tulianza kupata changamoto hapa ya mafuta wakati matatizo yalitokea kule Middle East, Iran ilipopata shida, kuna sehemu inaitwa Strait of Hormuz,” Ruto said.

    In March, when Cassava Technologies announced the launch of an AI factory powered by NVIDIA in South Africa, the company described it as a turning point. African businesses would gain local access to high-performance computing. Data would remain within African borders. Developers would be able to build models for local languages and local problems.

But the most consequential infrastructure inside an AI factory may not be the graphics processor. It may be the electricity connection.
