A Kenyan government delegation is in the United States for bilateral talks with President Donald Trump’s officials in Washington.
The Kenyan team is under the leadership of Cabinet Secretary Dr. Fred Matiang’i (Interior) and his counterpart Dr. Monica Juma (Foreign Affairs).
The two Cabinet Secretaries will lead the Kenyan delegation to the inaugural Bilateral Strategic Dialogue (BSD) on May 8th and 9th.
Government officials say the meeting will focus on five key areas that will benefit Kenya.
The BSD was established following August 2018 talks between President Kenyatta and his US counterpart Donald Trump at White House.
The Standard reports that the discussions between Nairobi and Washington will focus on Economic Prosperity, Trade and Investment, Defense Cooperation, Democracy and Governance, and Multilateral and Regional Issues.
“Under the Economic Prosperity and Trade and Investment pillar, Kenya and the US aim to step up collaboration in growing their economies through generating jobs and building technical capacity,” says CS Juma.
US envoy to Kenya Kyle McCarter says the talks will see the signing of deals between the two nations for various projects among them, the construction of Sh350 billion Nairobi-Mombasa expressway by an American engineering company, Bechtel.

Ndugu Matiang’i:
Nakuomba kabla hujaja Marekani ufuate maagizo uliyopewa na Mahakama kuu ya Kenya na kumrudishia Ndugu yetu Miguna Miguna pasipoti yake, na kitambulisho cha Kenya. Isitoshe, ni lazima umlipie nauli ya ndege na kumrudisha nyumbani Kenya. Mambo uliyomtendea yalileta aibu (shame) kubwa sana katika nchi yetu tukufu ya Kenya.
Kama mtu kama wewe hatii amri ya mahakama kuu ya nchi, kwa nini mwananchi wa kawaida naye atii kanuni na maagizo ya korti?

Enyewe people come from far. Juzi juzi tu huyu jamaa Matiang’i alikuwa mtu wa mkono wa Nyachae. Kwa mikutano ya kisiasa Kisii alikuwa kimya, handling things in the background. Saa hizi he has the President’s ear and he’s executing shit without any fear or favor, now that’s a journey right there. Shida tu ni hii serikali anafanyia kazi, that’s what history will care for unfortunately.

expressway ya mombasa is the sole reason they are coming, kenyans will have to pay toll so Bechtel can recoup the cost of construction, toll= taxes.. they steal public money then find another way of financing these projects on the backs of poor Kenyans. What about recover all corruption money and assets to finance these projects… what kenya needs is a well thought out strategy for creating jobs for the youth..expressway to mombasa good but how many jobs for Kenyans, we need to be making things in Kenya, 80% of imports can be made in Kenya..revolution
