MPs Approve National Infrastructure Fund Bill - March 2026

The National Assembly has passed the National Infrastructure Fund Bill 2026, a landmark piece of legislation that will establish Kenya's first government investment fund. The bill outlines the management and utilization of a 5 trillion shillings infrastructure fund. However, Members of the United Opposition have vowed to block the recently approved legislation, expressing grave concerns over potential constitutional violations and a lack of robust audit mechanisms. Kenyan opposition leaders are calling for parliament to reject the proposed national infrastructure fund, arguing its establishment is illegal and poses significant risks to the nation's economy.
