Ethiopia Kenya South Sudan Fast Track $25 Billion Lapsset Infrastructure Project
Africa's investment by country is at an all-time high. Ethiopia, Kenya, and South Sudan recently reaffirmed their commitment to the LAPSSET Corridor Program, a massive $25 billion East African infrastructure project. The Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor project, also known as the Lamu corridor, is a Kenyan transportation and infrastructure project that will be the country's second transport corridor when completed.
The Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor, which begins in Lamu, Kenya, is the region's largest and most ambitious infrastructure project, connecting the three countries with vital infrastructural projects such as ports, highways, railways, an oil pipeline, and airports. The $25 billion infrastructure LAPSSET Corridor project, which will link Kenya with Ethiopia, Uganda and South Sudan, has its headquarters in Magogoni in Kenya’s historic coastal town of Lamu. The far-reaching project involves a railway, a highway, a crude oil pipeline and a fiber-optic cable connecting the four countries. The project will also include several airports, resort cities, an oil refinery, a 32-berth port in Lamu and other supporting infrastructure mini-projects. Once completed, the LAPSSET railway will connect to West Africa’s Douala-Lagos-Cotonou-Abidjan Corridor, running through Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire respectively. Experts view the LAPSSET project as a major contribution to the African Union’s regional integration vision of a peaceful, prosperous and fully integrated continent by 2063.

Game changer
infrastructure is everything
Keep it up.
Wow wow wow wow good African TNX GOOD
Great Content
Thanks dear for sharing us.
Kasuku the CEO of the LAPSSET Development Authority is my close personal friend we've served with him in various government Taskforces over time with the last one being in 2019. I have been to his farm on a couple of occasions. I wish you meet the guy 😂 he's very enthusiastic about the whole concept even on his personal time he normally tries to sell people on the vision
That's unfortunate considering this project makes no economic sense
@@theturkanabus3610 How does a project connecting a population of close to 100 million and opening up trade for kenya to new frontiers like Ethiopia whom we never used to trade with before make no sense? Dude you watch a lot of John Allan Namu who critise everything 😂😂
@@lewiskunta9869 so 1 comment and you think you know what I watch?😂 jinga
There may be 100 million Ethiopians but the market is probably smaller than 5 million for anything more expensive than soap. I thought that was obvious but obviously I was wrong.
Moreover, we already have a good road linking Nairobi to Moyale and another one from Nairobi to Mombasa. So the question is, is there enough trade traffic to justify a 3rd port, after djibouti & Mombasa?
The fact that there's been negligible progress, 10 years after the project was launched should already be proof enough that lapset is unviable
@@theturkanabus3610 Dude
1. Why resort to abuse I used john Allan as a reference point not necessarily you.
2. Do you know what investing in people means. Ama put it you in a layman's language so that you understand some of this things.
A. We have to stop looking at every return of investment on every project in terms of monetary. This a product of being subjected to too much western way of thinking. Countries that have long realize this are the ones thriving
B. To emphasize my first point look at countries like Japan and China who have long stopped looking at the economic sense but the impact of a project how they are thriving. Example look at the money Japan is pouring to its Tokyo metro line. It's something that will never be recovered in this lifetime but they tend to look at the problem it solves and the impact meanwhile US who tend to be economical in every project have some the most poorest amenities and to put it in the words of their own former president " there's no difference between our amenities and the ones In third world countries." Even passing an infrastructure bill to upgrade some of their dilapidated amenities was an issue the other day because of economical sense.
Another thing before you come at me with US this US that do you know that America owes China close to $2 trillion (ksh 200trillion) and Japan their biggest lender $12trillion(multiply by 100 to get ksh)

Good Job!

God bless Africa.
Hello somalia weke up 🥲🥲 well done 👏sout sudan Ethiopian kenya 👏

They might need warehouses in Africa too.
Can you make a video about the Negative effects of France in west Africa !?

It would be good to know ,what parts of the proyect are in the making ,
RAiLA ODiNGA Must become president !
Baba the 5th
William Rutto should be the 5th president of kenya
Gyptian,say this again please!😍😍
@ambrose watiri its already written in history
The west, especially US and UK won't allow this kinda growth, see the chaos in Ethiopia ! the west cause every problem in the east!
Somalia is holding the whole of Eastern Africa region down, it's coastline could open up the whole region.
Somalia will one day be like Dubai. You can take that to the bank and cash it please.
@@baruasafi5880Lamu is the next Dubai Somali can not in next hundred years because of your religious belief. Most Islamic countries won't allow Dubai lifestyle in their country so that's why they created Dubai as a neutral ground. Secondly Somali have has wasted many chances chance 1,2 3 while other countries have moved on. Life is a race.
@@David-gy6fv Take my word this country is extremely rich. A peaceful somalia will be good for its neighbors and Africa at large. Somalia is a family member of Africa and its problems should evoke our concern. I'm a Kenyan and I appreciate this country. God brought me to Somalia to learn something and I have indeed.
@@David-gy6fv and Lamu is also Islamic city which is 1200 years old, home of the Bajun Somali clan and Swahili Arabs. dont get worked up. Also Lapset is in Muslim regions.
@@roblemohamed9681 we have Somalis leaving in Kenya and they will soon benefit from Lappset project.
Make a visit to moyale Kenya Ethiopia border town, the best place to stay
EA 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great project! When you wait too long to emplement a project it ended costing more, as prices for labour and raw material cost go up. Anyway, better late than never..

But I've heard it only covers a distance of only 50 something kms
Its very hard for a young black person to do busuness freely in his own continent africa.for example i am a kenyan citizen and i am in tanzania now,i tried to do timber business and take them to kenya but before even buying my timber all the money i had was taken by the tanzanian immigration officers telling me that my visa was only been given to stay at the capital and not other parts of tanzania.now i am going back to kenya without anything no money and no timber.and i am here to tell my fellow young africans to look for another places to work or to do business since its very hard to achieve out goals in our own continent.thank you all
As a Kenyan aswell and dream of doing business all over east Africa, especially tz, this news is very sad. Due to the east African federation business and Africa free trade movement, is meant to be made easier. Your story is meant to be a thing of the past but hopefully it will be, this is why I'll leave for EU first chance I get. Very sad tho, hope you're doing well, God bless.
The corridor transportation in the easternmost part of Africa is to provide economic stability into tolerance of business 👨💼 towards self sustaining economic cooperation into trade amongst neighboring regions and countries to achieve peace ✌️ sovereignty and national stability.??
soomaliyeey!
According to me uhuru is overworking,he has vision and baba will do more trust the process
no such thing as overworking. kenyan grammar
Wacha arap mashamba and his goons waingie. All these watakula yote mpaka mifupa.
As long they respect territorial integrity neighbour countries land, sea and Air it will be find.
We haven't had any territorial issue with this project 😕 idk how you came up with that
Alishabab we know you’re one of them hating anything uplifting Africa
Africa's begins need is to develop its own manufacturing. This China won't do.
So you think Africa doesn't manufacture?
@@aliciafields-worldtravelle8248 not nearly enough.
We still need someone like China to help achieve that . We are so brainwashed to think that China means bad for Africa. China loans are better than world bank loans. Check out and do your research well.
And QUICKLY, at that.
@@aliciafields-worldtravelle8248 More so.
Africa rich
Brics more prosperous !!
You mentioned nothing on project progress.
It is ongoing....
Four port berths already completed. An airport soon probably the end of the year. Pipeline on going. Bidding currently ongoing for expression of interest on whomever wants to put up a real estate on the city. Ethiopia's side is making strides too even I don't know the exact details but you can visit the website it has link to what each country is doing and the progress so far
Kipevu pipeline is 98% completed and Lamu port I think is 100% completed
@@itgamingke kipevu pipeline? first off, kipevu is in mombasa, not part of lappset. second, they were building an offshore oil terminal, there hasnt been any new pipeline in the country under construction. finally, lamu port has only completed three berths and commissioned 1 out of the 32 berths the port is envisioned to have
@@TheTororist the whole was reported this week and it's said everything will be ready and running this May .
As a Kenyan I got to say this is an actual project not the PR exercises Kagame with his Rwanda engage in.
why do you have to put down a fellow east african country? We could learn a lot from rwanda
@@TheTororist Well I see small glimpses of what President Kagame achieved and continues to achieve...Perhaps that person could point us to what they have done. Enlighten us.
He has done his part, what about you?
Right, a significant number of Africans don’t see this, or maybe they want to turn a blind eye to the abhorrent crimes he perpetrated in Congo and Rwanda.
@@cedrickk.1447 Please say more...
Kenya with one port Tanzania has 4 why is Tanzania not included in this project
The port of Dar will connect with Mwanza, Burundi, Kigali, DRC, on the South.... Through SGR
Kenya is already working on a road connecting Kenya to TZ but for this project, it was a strategy to open northern Kenya economy
Then in this case i am looki g forward to this as trade and commerce will improve
Kenya has 2 ports. And Mombasa port alone handles more traffic than all Tanzanian ports together. Mombasa Port is the third in Sub-saharan Africa and 5th in Africa. 19 berths; grain terminal, 2 oil terminals/jetties, 4 container berths, and 12 general cargo berths. What's your obsession and competition with Kenya. Other countries want to be number 1 in the world but Tanzanians will take pride they have more houseflies than Kenya. Anyway..This project does not factor in who has more ports or not. These countries came together and partnered. Who does Tanzania partner with? I am sure not fellow east Africans but South Africans. Focus there.
Kenyans work with whoever wants to work with them, it is not about competition it has to do with economies of scale.
Lamu port has been completed I think
3 berths completed by Govt no loans on this out of the 20+ ,to be built through PPP
@@Davisjunga true 👍 waiting for May for the port to start receiving containers

To achieve this all don’t go to IMF or WB you have to trust only China 🇨🇳 🇨🇳 🇨🇳
Never seen a such failiure in planning such infrastructure project.
The planning has so much failiure sun planning, there are people in charge which are not able to do this kind of planning. This is when grifters are in charge
TELL YOU WHAT,THIS IS WHY RUTO IS BITTER AFTER REALIZING UHURU HAS DONE ALOT THAN HIM.
Lamu is not kenya is a a part of somalia don't say kenya 😏😡
Sasa huyu msee anatafuta furuju 😂😂😂baki Mogadishu jareer. Mnatusumbua sana
Bure kabisaa ,Lamu is proper and squarely in kenya
You are just jealous my brother first protect what you have before you loose all. Love somalia if you integrat with your
neighbors you would developed and move with time like south sudan working with Ethiopia and kenya. Peace ✌️
