Malaba One-Stop Border Post (OSBP) is expected to be completed by August. It will maximise free flow of goods and services across Kenya and Uganda.

The post bordering the two countries will enable government agencies from both countries to provide services under one roof. “Goods from Kenya will be cleared from Ugandan post while those from Uganda will be cleared from the Kenyan post,” said Michael Chai, a consultant in charge of construction of Kenya post, adding that the building will be ready for use by August.
