Private investors are expected to pour Sh96 billion into public infrastructure projects in sectors such as electricity transmission and water in the current financial year ending June 2027 in the wake of mounting debt repayments, which have shrunk the room for the government to finance development.

Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi says the amount targeted is a 74.5 percent increase from the Sh55 billion mobilised through public-private partnerships (PPPs) last financial year ended June 2025.
