UDA Sec-Gen Hassan Omar hosts Chinese developers as Kenya seeks deeper trade links

United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party Secretary-General Hassan Omar on Wednesday hosted a delegation of Kenya-based Chinese developers at the party headquarters.

The move, which is part of the government’s efforts to deepen ongoing development partnerships between Kenya and China, saw Omar hold talks with officials from Fujian Construction Investment Group Company, led by Deputy General Manager Chen Zhita.

Zhita was accompanied by the head of Business Development, Jiang Zhiqiang, Board Secretary and Planning and Development General Manager Chien Jiandong and Luo Zicheng, the Deputy General Manager at China Wu Yi, a subsidiary of Fujian.

The meeting also comes hot on the heels of President William Ruto’s state visit to China, which is expected to open up new avenues for investment and cooperation.
