Sakaja Greenlights Leasing of Spaces in Uhuru and Central Parks

Date:

NAIROBI, Kenya – Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has unveiled a strategy to transform Uhuru and Central Parks into state-of-the-art recreational hubs.

His cabinet has approved leasing and renting specific areas within the iconic parks to private investors, aiming to enhance facilities and improve user experiences.

Governor Sakaja highlighted the increasing demand for urban recreational spaces, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to sustain and modernize such facilities.

“This initiative will attract private investment to fund park maintenance, introduce new amenities, and ensure visitors enjoy better services,” he stated during a cabinet session.

The plan aligns with Kenya Kwanza’s broader agenda to foster Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) for infrastructure development.

Sakaja envisions these partnerships creating sustainable income streams for park upkeep while boosting Nairobi’s economy.

Under the proposed arrangement, investors will have the opportunity to develop recreational facilities, eateries, and event spaces within the parks.

Sakaja believes this will not only enhance the city’s public spaces but also generate much-needed revenue for the county.

“This initiative allows investors to contribute to the city’s development, create employment opportunities, and enhance public enjoyment while enabling the county to improve service delivery,” Sakaja added.
