NAIROBI, Kenya, January 29, 2025 – Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to completing key stadium projects across the city.

He highlighted the ongoing construction of Woodley Stadium in Woodley, Kihumbuini Stadium in Kangemi, and Mwiki Stadium, noting that their completion will mark a turning point for the surrounding communities.

“These stadia are progressing nicely; the Woodley one is moving on swiftly, and Kihumbuini in Kangemi is the same. We are on the right path to ensuring that these projects are completed on time,” the governor said.

Furthermore, Sakaja emphasized that the sports facilities will not only provide a platform for nurturing local talent but also generate jobs and business opportunities.

“These stadia will host events that attract people from different parts of the city, boosting small businesses, transport, and other economic activities around the stadia. Lazima itawork,” he said.
