How Ruto US visit raises the country global rating as investment centre

As the dust begins to settle on President William Ruto's visit to the US, Kenyans are keen to see the tangible benefits of the trip, which was overshadowed by the controversy of the over $2 million-a-day jet expenses.

President Ruto and his entourage secured deals worth hundreds of billions of shillings but also pitched Kenya as an ideal investment destination hoping to attract more US firms to set up base in the country. The money from the deals secured, which will be in the form of loans, a few grants and, US firms investing in the country, was around infrastructure, e-mobility, education and ICT industries.
