Richard Ngatia among Leaders attending the gulf Cooperation Council-Kenya business forum in Dubai

Nairobi gubernatorial hopeful Richard Ngatia is among guest attending the gulf Cooperation Council-Kenya business forum that was opened earlier today by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

Before attending high-level Kenya-United Arab Emirates (UAE) the chamber president paid a visit to Gatundu South Legislator Moses Kuria

Kuria has been in Dubai for nearly three months where he received treatment after injuring his legs with an electric blanket. The MP underwent stem cell surgery which enabled him to walk for the first time in 137 days.

The MP revealed that he would be on the sidelines of the forum through which Kenya is expected to strengthen business ties with the Gulf state. Uhuru was accompanied by officials from the Kenya business community and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

On February 14, Uhuru flew to Dubai for the three-day official visit. The Head of State officially opened the Kenya-UAE business forum before having a sit down with UAE leadership.

“It is expected that the Kenyan business representatives will engage and strike business deals with their UAE counterparts and other participating countries.

“The purpose of the President coming here is to showcase business and investment opportunities that are available in Kenya. And there are quite a number of them mostly in the investment areas,” Kenya’s Ambassador to the UAE Kariuki Mugwe stated.

Former Kiambu Governor and Tujibebe Wakenya Party leader, William Kabogo was also spotted in Dubai. Other notable leaders included Health Cabinet Secretary (CS), Mutahi Kagwe, his Agriculture counterpart, and CS Peter Munya.
