(Politics): Kenya to build East Africa's first exclusive Food Cargo Airport

The East Africa giant, Kenya, a grower and exporter of avocados, vegetables and other fresh produce to world markets, plans to build East and Central Africa's first exclusive cargo airport.

The Kenya Kwanza government plans to build the cargo airport on land in the Athi River area. Athi River is a town outside Nairobi, Kenya in Machakos County. The town is named after the Athi River, which passes through the town. 

According to Moses Kuria, from the government's Investments, Trade and Industry department, the port will enable the Kenyan fresh exports of avocados, vegetables and flowers to reach other countries much quicker, while also creating thousands of jobs.

Kenya currently has a new government led by President William Ruto. Who is bent on turning the fortunes of the country around after the alleged mismanagement and corruption by the government of his predecessor, Kenyatta, under whom he served as a deputy president. But was completely sidelined and humiliated during their second term in office.
