In addition to Ilhan Omar’s reelection to Congress, NINE more Somalis were elected to the State Senate and State House across Minnesota, Ohio, and Oregon. I am speechless.

Over the next 14 days, the Port of Mombasa is expected to handle a total of 44 vessels, comprising 22 container ships, 11 conventional cargo vessels, 5 car carriers and 6 oil tankers. Meanwhile, the Port of Lamu is expected to receive 9 vessels, comprising 7 container vessels and 2 general cargo vessels. Combined, the two ports are projected to handle 53 vessels over the next two weeks.

Under the leadership of President Ruto @WilliamsRuto Kenya’s industrial base is growing hence the need for investments in industrial skills development to meet the high demand for skilled industrial workforce in Kenya. Africa Skills Week October 2026 provided an important platform for advancing discussions on Africa’s skills development and workforce readiness for industrial future. Held discussions with Eng. Michael J. Vallez, Founder and Executive Director of GFP International and CEO of African Skills and Development Group, following their presentation of the report “Building Africa’s Industrial Future” at Africa Skills Week October 2026 in Zimbabwe. The report highlights a high demand for skilled welders and the need to strengthen the capacity of the key training institutions such as Kenya Industrial Training Institute (KITI), NITA and TVETs to produce competent, industry-ready WELDERS for emerging industrial opportunities such as the East Africa Dangote Oil Refinery project. My state department is working closely with the State Department for Labour and Skills Development in championing strategic partnerships that will attract investment, facilitate skills and technology transfer, create employment opportunities and strengthen Kenya’s capacity for sustainable industrial growth.@GovLeeKinyanjui @StateHouseKenya @LabourSPKE @TVET_MoE @EduMinKenya @Investment_Ke @InvestKenya_ @epzakenya @SEZAuthority_ke @KDC_KE @MITIKenya @IndustryKE

The Dangote group have smelt blood in Kenya...and that is good for Kenya. Kenya must incentify The Dangote Group further and encourage more investment from Africa. We must ignore cry babies like Hon. Ndindi Nyoro with their penchant for talking nonsense all over the place and create the right ecosystem for Kenya to be the preferred investment destination in Africa.

The Port of Lamu has welcomed MV Great Glory, a vessel carrying the second batch of heavy project cargo destined for the Dangote East Africa Refinery. The shipment of the 154 assorted heavy machinery equipment to Lamu, is another concrete step in the physical mobilisation of the project that will reshape Kenya's energy landscape and anchor the country's northern region as an industrial hub. This follows an earlier delivery in late September, when the MV Da Yang docked at the port with nearly 3,000 metric tonnes of construction equipment for the refinery. The Dangote East Africa refinery, valued at approximately Sh2.2 trillion, is designed to process up to 700,000 barrels of crude oil per day, making it the largest refining complex in East Africa once completed. It will produce petrol, diesel, and aviation fuel for Kenya and the region. @TransportKE @SDoT_Kenya @mohamed_daghar @davis_chirchir
