Ruto orders Tata Chemicals out of Magadi - September 2026

President William Ruto has ordered the Indian multinational Tata Chemicals to cease operations at the soda ash mines in Magadi, Kajiado County, announcing the closure of Tata Chemicals Magadi Limited following a dispute with the government. A new company is being sought to take over operations in Magadi. The DCP party has accused President Ruto of harboring a hidden agenda in the termination of the TATA Chemicals contract at Lake Magadi. Meanwhile, sugar factory workers in several factories are demanding unpaid wages and other dues, with the Kenya Union of Sugar Plantation and Allied Workers issuing a one-week ultimatum to the National Treasury demanding release of unpaid dues owed to sugar factory workers.
