Mombasa Port Faces Congestion Risk Over Higher Customs Threshold - August 2026

The Port of Mombasa is at risk of severe container congestion due to traders halting cargo clearance following an increase in the customs clearance threshold for consolidated cargo. This primarily affects imports from China. Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka has strongly criticized Deputy President William Ruto regarding demolitions in Taita Taveta County, which have displaced numerous residents. Separately, Kenya's substantial national debt reaching Sh13 trillion is having a detrimental impact on the country's healthcare sector.
