Kenya and Uganda are currently in discussions with Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote regarding the establishment of a significant oil refinery in East Africa. This initiative aims to replicate the success of Dangote's refinery in Nigeria, which has transformed the country's oil landscape.
In a show of commitment, Kenya has pledged to support Uganda's ambitious $4 billion refinery project, promising to repay President Museveni's trust. The collaboration signifies a strategic move to enhance regional energy security and economic cooperation between the two nations.
