Dangote, Kenya in Talks to Build Lamu-Turkana Crude Oil Pipeline

Nigerian businessman Aliko Dangote is in talks with the Kenyan government to construct a crude oil pipeline linking Lamu to Turkana as part of a refinery project in Lamu. President William Ruto announced that the refinery's construction will begin on September 30, with a processing capacity of 700,000 barrels per day expected by 2030. However, questions remain about securing sufficient crude oil to sustain the refinery's operations.
