In Kenya collapsed Chinese bridge Siguiri
In Kenya collapsed Chinese bridge Siguiri. Just 2 weeks after the "inspection" of President Uhuru Kenyatta, Chinese bridge Siguiri RA $12 million in Western Kenya collapsed before it was completed.
Built an engineering company in the area Busy, the bridge that connects the region that historically lacked public investment and development. About a dozen people died in the river after boat capsized trying to cross the river in 2014. President Uhuru Kenyatta has made infrastructure development a key element of its strategy for re-election before the upcoming presidential election.
On 14 June he came to the construction site of Siguiri and talked to the people gathered along the river. He promised that the bridge will bring development that the region has not seen for decades. National elections in Kenya scheduled for August 8, and the main rival of President Kenyatta is the leader of the opposition veteran Reil Odinga. The Kenyan government largely relied on the designs created by the Chinese, to achieve the promises of the infrastructure campaign of the President.
Last month, the President launched the railway Express Madaraka. The railroad cost $3.8 billion, financed from the Exim Bank of China, departs from the port of Mombasa to Nairobi and is planning to cross the Kenya and connect it to several other countries in East Africa.
