Kenya has agreed with Aliko Dangote to invest in a pipeline linking Lamu to Turkana, enabling the country to transport its crude oil to Lamu, President William Ruto has said.
Speaking in a joint interview in Mombasa, President Ruto noted that Kenya will begin extracting Turkana oil by December, with the proposed pipeline enabling the country to transport crude to Lamu regardless of the initial production volumes.
“We have agreed with Dangote that we will invest in a pipeline from Turkana to Lamu so that, however small the quantity, we can transport our crude oil to Lamu,” Ruto said.
