Give locals slice of lucrative extractive business, Deputy President Ruto says

Deputy President William Ruto has asked international oil companies (IOCs) to consider raising capital in the local stock market to give Kenyans a stake in the local oil, gas and mining sectors.

Speaking in Nairobi during the second edition of the annual Oil and Energy Services Local Content Convention, Ruto observed that local participation was not limited to employment and supply of goods and services but also making locals worthy partners in the extractive business.
