Kenya Welcomes @Apple ’s Expanded Services Rollout

Kenya is among 102 countries and regions—including 40 in Africa—benefiting from Apple’s expanded iCloud+ offering.

Beginning this month, Kenyan iCloud+ subscribers will receive Apple TV and Apple Arcade as part of their existing subscription at no additional cost. Significantly, this marks the first official availability of Apple TV in Kenya, opening access to Apple’s original films, series and documentaries, alongside more than 200 games available through Apple Arcade.

The initiative is part of a wider global rollout through which Apple TV is expanding into 59 new markets and will now be available in 170 countries and regions.

Beyond entertainment, Apple’s growing presence creates valuable opportunities for Kenya’s software developers, game designers, filmmakers, musicians and other digital creators. Apple reports that its App Store ecosystem facilitated approximately US$1.3 trillion in developer billings and sales in 2024. Through this ecosystem, Kenyan innovators can develop products locally and reach customers in more than 175 countries and regions.

This progress complements Kenya’s continuing engagement with Apple and other global technology companies. During President William Ruto’s visit to Silicon Valley in September 2023, he met the then Apple CEO, Tim Cook, as part of Kenya’s investment diplomacy and efforts to expand technology partnerships, skills development and opportunities for our young people.

We also welcome the progress towards expanding Apple-authorised training opportunities in Kenya, including the programme already operating at Strathmore University. Such initiatives will help equip more Kenyan developers with the skills required to build competitive applications and digital products for the Apple ecosystem.

Kenya welcomes this global rollout and looks forward to deepening engagement with Apple across developer training, the creative economy, digital services and innovation.

Our ambition remains clear: to position Kenya not only as a consumer of global technology, but also as a source of world-class applications, games, digital content and technology solutions.

Advancing Africa’s Digital Infrastructure for Economic Growth : ITW Ministerial Breakfast Meeting

Digital infrastructure is no longer simply an ICT agenda; it is the backbone of Africa’s economic transformation. As our economies expand through industrialisation, Special Economic Zones, trade, AI and emerging technologies, we must build digital infrastructure ahead of demand to ensure that connectivity, data centres, cloud and reliable energy can support the next wave of investment and economic growth.

I represented the Cabinet Secretary for Information, Communications and the Digital Economy, H.E. Hon. William Kabogo Gitau, at the ITW Ministerial Breakfast Meeting, where I joined the Minister of Communication and New Information Technologies of the Republic of Niger, Hon. Adji Ali Salatou, and industry leaders for discussions on accelerating digital infrastructure investment across Africa.

The conversation focused on how governments and industry can work together to close Africa’s infrastructure gap faster, attract greater investment in data centres, cloud and connectivity, and unlock the economic opportunities emerging from Africa’s digital transformation.

For Kenya, our AI Strategy 2025–2030, expanding fibre connectivity, growing data-centre ecosystem and wider digital infrastructure investments are critical to positioning the country for this next phase of growth.

Following the Ministers’ presentations, I was joined by my counterpart, PS Broadcasting and Telecommunications, Mr Steve Isaboke EBS , and KenInvest CEO, Mr John Mwendwa, as we continued engagements around investment opportunities and partnerships that will strengthen Kenya’s digital economy.

Africa’s opportunity is significant. Our responsibility is to build strategically, invest ahead of demand and create the infrastructure that enables businesses, innovation and people to thrive.

Building on the Success of Konza Technopolis: Deepening Kenya–Italy Digital Ties 🇰🇪🇮🇹

The phenomenal progress of Konza Technopolis stands as a powerful testament to what strategic international partnerships can achieve. Having successfully concluded its initial phases of horizontal infrastructure and eco-sustainable systems with key Italian engineering support, the Silicon Savannah is now a reality.

It is against this backdrop that I had the distinct pleasure of being hosted today by the Italian Ambassador to Kenya, H.E. Vincenzo Del Monaco, at his official residence.

Our discussions focused on carrying this momentum forward by identifying concrete steps to accelerate the implementation of Phase II of Konza Technopolis, while expanding Kenya’s broader BETA Digital Superhighway in alignment with Italy’s transformative Mattei Plan for Africa.

Building on our existing collaboration with Italy’s digital infrastructure agency, Infratel Italia, we aim to significantly scale up the rollout of public Wi-Fi hotspots and advanced smart-city technologies across the country.

Innovation and inclusion remained at the centre of our dialogue..

We also deliberated on maximizing the commercial and research potential of the Luigi Broglio Space Centre in Malindi, including opportunities to anchor high-speed subsea connectivity through the Blue Raman cable and ultimately help lower data costs for our citizens.

At its core, this partnership is a human-centred investment. Through deeper collaboration on advanced digital skills across our TVET institutions, we are laying a strong foundation for Kenya’s youth to compete and lead in the global digital economy.

I extend my sincere gratitude to H.E. Ambassador Del Monaco and the team at the Italian Embassy in Nairobi for their warm hospitality and continued collaborative spirit.

Moving forward, our focus remains firmly on outcomes—translating high-level agreements and partnerships into sustainable digital jobs, innovation and tangible opportunities for Kenyans.

A powerful reminder from Lake Bogoria: climate change is no longer a distant environmental conversation. It is reshaping communities, livelihoods, ecosystems and the future of places we hold dear.

Today, I had the honour of touring Lake Bogoria National Reserve alongside H.E. Kang Hyung-shik, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Kenya. 🇰🇪🤝🇰🇷

The visit brought into sharp focus the urgent realities facing the Rift Valley lakes.

Historically, Lake Bogoria — a highly alkaline soda lake with a pH of about 9.5–10.5 — covered approximately 32–34 square kilometres. Today, intensified climate variability, extreme rainfall and heavy siltation have driven a dramatic rise in water levels, with the lake expanding to more than 40 square kilometres in some estimates.

The consequences are profound. Nearly 80 percent of the lake’s famous geysers and hot springs have been submerged, while homes, schools, health facilities, roads, grazing land and other public infrastructure have been affected. Even the Kenya Wildlife Service has had to relocate the reserve’s main gate as rising waters overwhelmed previous facilities.

But Lake Bogoria is not an isolated story.

Just to the north lies freshwater Lake Baringo. The rising waters of the two lakes have significantly narrowed the distance between them, raising concerns about the possibility of their eventual connection. Such an occurrence would have far-reaching ecological consequences, given the fundamental difference between Bogoria’s highly alkaline waters and Baringo’s freshwater ecosystem.

The ecological implications are equally serious.

Lake Bogoria is part of the Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is also a designated Ramsar wetland of international importance. It is globally renowned for its spectacular populations of lesser flamingos, which depend heavily on the lake’s unique alkaline ecosystem and the blue-green cyanobacteria that forms an important part of their food supply.

Changes in water chemistry caused by increased freshwater inflows can therefore disrupt an extraordinarily delicate ecological balance. The decline in flamingo numbers observed in recent years is a powerful reminder that climate impacts are not measured only in metres of rising water — they are also measured in the disruption of entire food chains and ecosystems.

The rising waters are also changing human-wildlife interactions, with crocodiles and hippopotamuses increasingly coming closer to areas where communities live and farm. For families whose livelihoods depend on agriculture, livestock, tourism and natural resources, this is not simply an environmental challenge. It is a question of livelihoods, safety, resilience and survival.

There is also a less visible dimension to the crisis: siltation. Heavy runoff from surrounding catchments carries enormous quantities of sediment into the Rift Valley lakes, altering their basins and reducing the ability of the ground to absorb and store water. This reinforces the need to look beyond the lake itself and invest in catchment restoration, watershed management and nature-based solutions.

Beyond the challenge lies an opportunity to demonstrate what meaningful international partnership can achieve.

Kenya’s partnership with the Republic of Korea offers an opportunity to bring together local knowledge, science, technology and global expertise in climate adaptation. Satellite monitoring, geospatial intelligence, hydrological and geological modelling, early-warning systems and resilient infrastructure planning can help us understand changes in real time, anticipate risks and make better decisions before climate impacts become disasters.

The lesson from Lake Bogoria is clear: climate resilience must be built where people live, where ecosystems are under pressure, and where the consequences of inaction are already being felt.

Strategic partnerships are most valuable when they translate shared ambition into projects that create lasting economic opportunity.

Today, I received the Korea Import-Export Bank (KEXIM) delegation, led by Executive Director Mr. Yongjin Jeong, following their due diligence mission at the Technopolis Development Authority (TDA) in Konza on the proposed Digital Media City (DMC) Infrastructure Project.

The mission provided an opportunity to take stock of the progress made and agree on the next steps, particularly continued engagement to advance the proposed Digital Media City at Konza Technopolis.

Our discussions also explored opportunities for deeper Kenya–Korea collaboration in emerging areas, including AI Data Centres and other strategic digital infrastructure projects.

Konza is increasingly positioning itself as a platform where international partnerships, technology and investment converge to build the industries of the future. Our engagement with KEXIM reflects Kenya’s commitment to developing bankable, future-ready digital infrastructure while strengthening strategic partnerships that can unlock investment, innovation, skills and jobs.

We look forward to translating these engagements into tangible projects that advance Kenya’s digital economy and strengthen the Kenya–Korea partnership.

Strategic partnerships deliver their greatest value when they evolve beyond project implementation into long-term platforms for innovation, knowledge exchange and shared economic transformation.

Today, I met with the Korea Exim Bank (KEXIM) Country Director, Mr. Byunghyun Hwang, to take stock of the progress of the Kenya Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (Kenya-AIST) as we advance towards its operationalization. As Kenya strengthens its national innovation ecosystem, institutions such as Kenya-AIST will play a pivotal role in developing the research capacity, scientific talent and technological capabilities needed to power a knowledge-driven economy.

Our discussions also focused on the next phase of collaboration at Konza Technopolis, including ongoing engagements around the proposed Digital Media City (DMC) and AI data centre initiatives. These strategic investments have the potential to strengthen Kenya's digital infrastructure, expand opportunities for innovation and position the country as a regional destination for emerging technologies.

We further looked ahead to the upcoming visit by a Korean delegation in August, which will provide an opportunity to broaden cooperation across ICT, cultural exchange and policy dialogue while identifying new areas for mutually beneficial collaboration.

Kenya's digital transformation journey is increasingly being shaped by partnerships that combine investment with knowledge, technology transfer and institutional development. As we continue implementing the Digital Superhighway agenda, sustained collaboration with trusted global partners will be essential in building the ecosystems, capabilities and infrastructure that will define the next chapter of Kenya's digital economy.

Great institutions do not merely produce graduates; they shape character, nurture purpose, and prepare young people to lead the future.

Today, I was honored to join the Gender & Culture CS @hannawcheptumo ,during the Kapropita Girls' High School the Rehoboth Class of 2025 Thanksgiving Service under the theme "A Heart of Gratitude" drawn from Psalm 100.
Also present was Baringo Central Mp Hon Hon Joshua Kandie , & CEC Agriculture Hon. Risper Chepkong'a.

Founded on 16th March 1957 by the African Inland Mission, Kapropita Girls High School remains one of the oldest and most distinguished institutions in Baringo County. Built on a strong Christian foundation, the school has nurtured over 9,400 young women since inception and continues to be a beacon of academic excellence, leadership, and moral formation.

The institution's growth has been guided by visionary leadership over the decades, including the late President H.E. Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi, who served as Chairman from 1981 to 2007 and contributed immensely to the school's development. Today, the Board of Management under the leadership of Eng. Paul Limo continues to steer the school toward even greater heights.

The Rehoboth Class of 2025 has every reason to celebrate. Out of 305 KCSE candidates, the school attained a commendable mean score of 7.144 (C+) and achieved a 68.9% university transition rate. More importantly, the school has set an ambitious target of attaining a mean score of 8.5 (B-) in 2026, reflecting a culture that refuses to settle and continuously strives for excellence.

Drawing from Psalm 100, Rev. Peter Ng'ok delivered a powerful reminder that gratitude is never an accident; it is a deliberate acknowledgment of God's sovereignty.

One illustration particularly stood out. Like the tiny mouse crossing a bridge alongside a giant elephant and later claiming, "Look how we shook the bridge," we are often tempted to attribute success solely to ourselves. Yet the truth is that behind every achievement, every promotion, every leadership opportunity, and every academic milestone is the hand of God making circumstances align in our favor.

As I reflected on the remarkable achievements of these young women, I encouraged them to remain grounded in faith, integrity, and gratitude. The excellent results achieved today are not merely a reflection of academic ability, but of resilience, discipline, dedicated teachers, supportive parents, and God's faithfulness.

As these students prepare to join institutions of higher learning, enter the workforce and participate in shaping our democracy, they are stepping into a Kenya that is undergoing unprecedented transformation.

Through the Government's Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), we are laying the foundation for their future through investments in the Digital Superhighway, Artificial Intelligence, digital skills, innovation ecosystems, affordable housing, digital public infrastructure, and job creation opportunities for young people.

We are expanding connectivity across the country, strengthening Kenya's position as Africa's digital innovation hub, and creating pathways for young people to participate meaningfully in the digital economy.

The Government can build the digital superhighway, but it is this generation of young that must drive the vehicles of innovation on it.

As we embrace emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, may we never forget the values that sustain lasting success. Let us pair Artificial Intelligence with Authentic Integrity, innovation with character, and ambition with gratitude.

Congratulations to the Rehoboth Class of 2025 and the Principal, teachers, parents, alumni, the Board of Management and the entire Kapropita Girls High School fraternity.

Equally all the best to the Class of 2026 Mary's of Bethany.

May today's gratitude inspire tomorrow's excellence.

Building Africa’s Digital Future: Is It Time for Device as a Service?

Africa’s digital transformation is accelerating. Governments are investing in connectivity, digital skills, digital public infrastructure, devices, and local electronics manufacturing. Yet an important question remains:

What happens to devices after they leave the factory?

Yesterday, I visited the world-class facilities of @CloseTheGapInt and Cycle IT in Belgium, where I witnessed a fully certified operation covering secure data destruction, device refurbishment, asset recovery, and responsible recycling.

The visit reinforced a conviction that the future of Africa’s digital economy is not only about manufacturing devices—it is about managing them throughout their entire lifecycle.

Kenya’s electronics manufacturing sector now has capacity exceeding 7 million devices annually. At the same time, the rollout of 1,450 Digital Hubs will require more than 150,000 devices to support digital skills, innovation, AI training, online work, and entrepreneurship.

In addition, through the Kenya Digital Economy Acceleration Project (KDEAP), Government is rolling out 10,000 smart boards and laptops to Junior Secondary Schools, building on the foundation laid by the Digital Literacy Programme.

Across Africa, there are now over 700 million mobile subscribers and more than 1 billion connected devices in circulation. Kenya alone has over 70 million mobile subscriptions.

This presents a significant opportunity.

Imagine a future where devices are not simply manufactured, sold, used, and discarded. Instead, they are deployed, maintained, upgraded, recovered, refurbished, remanufactured, and ultimately recycled within a circular ecosystem.

This is the essence of Device as a Service (DaaS).

Globally, manufacturers are increasingly embracing lifecycle management models that combine deployment, maintenance, upgrades, refurbishment, recovery, and recycling. The result is lower lifecycle costs, reduced e-waste, improved sustainability, and stronger local service ecosystems.

For Kenya, this could unlock a new phase of industrial growth. Beyond assembly, manufacturers could generate value through maintenance, repair, refurbishment, remanufacturing, recovery, and recycling services—creating jobs, strengthening supply chains, and enhancing competitiveness.

This thinking informed our decision to incorporate e-waste management and device lifecycle spaces within the Digital Hubs Programme, enabling hubs to evolve into centres for repair, refurbishment, digital skills, and circular economy innovation.

This raises an important question:

Could Kenya’s electronics manufacturers partner more closely with Government to develop Device as a Service models for schools, Digital Hubs, public institutions, and citizens?

Could partnerships involving manufacturers, Close the Gap International, and the WEEE Centre help establish a national framework for device lifecycle management and responsible e-waste handling?

As Kenya expands device deployment across the economy, embedding sustainability into programme design may prove just as important as the devices themselves.

My sincere appreciation to Olivier Vanden Eynde, Founder of Close the Gap International, for championing a vision that demonstrates how technology, sustainability, and inclusion can advance together.

As a symbolic reminder of this opportunity, I was gifted a professionally refurbished device during the visit. Rather than keep it, I intend to donate it to a deserving young Kenyan entrepreneur working in clean energy, circular economy, sustainability, or green technology, particularly among recent NYOTA Programme beneficiaries.

“The next frontier in electronics manufacturing is ensuring every device is repaired, upgraded, reused, refurbished, and recycled throughout its lifecycle.”

Driving Kenya’s Digital Superhighway Straight into the Classroom

For years, we have spoken about bridging the digital divide. Today, we are putting the physical infrastructure directly into the ecosystem where it can spark the most profound change: our classrooms, our laboratories and our teacher training hubs.
I am incredibly thrilled to celebrate the official launch and flag-off of the Digital Literacy Programme (DLP) devices at the [Centre for Mathematics, Science and Technology Education in Africa (CEMASTEA)] today.

This crucial intervention is a milestone under the [Kenya Digital EconomyAccelerationProject ], funded by the World Bank and spearheaded by the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Digital Economy through the ICT Authority. With the rollout of 10,382 interactive smartboards and laptops to public Junior Schools across the country, we are directly expanding high-tech capabilities into thousands of institutions nationwide during this first phase.

Why This Launch Matters

Technology is not an elective; it is a fundamental pillar of modern literacy. We are executing a highly strategic, three-pronged transformation:

* Empowering the Educators: We cannot build tech-savvy students without digitally empowered teachers. Centering this deployment at CEMASTEA ensures our trainers and teachers master digital pedagogy, AI integration, and virtual lab modeling.

* Democratizing STEM Learning: Whether a child sits in an urban center or a remote rural school, these devices ensure uniform, high-quality, and curriculum-aligned digital science and mathematics content.

* Accelerating our Digital Economy: This rollout directly feeds into Sub-component 3.1 of KDEAP, purposefully scaling digital skills, innovation, and collaboration to build the workforce of tomorrow.

*Beyond Hardware: Building a Legacy
A device is only as powerful as the infrastructure and capacity backing it.
Through KDEAP, this launch is intertwined with ongoing efforts in expanding last-mile fiber connectivity, developing immersive digital repositories, and fostering localized digital skills. We aren't just handing out tools; we are constructing a self-sustaining digital learning ecosystem.

We were honored to have key leadership steering this transition at the flag-off ceremony today, including:

Mr. Stephen Isaboke, PS for Broadcasting and Telecommunications

Prof. Julius Bittok, PS for Tourism (immediate former PS Education)

Hon. John Kiarie, Chair of the Parliamentary Committee on Communication, Innovation, and Information

Mr.Jessy Maruti, leadership at the ICT Authority

Aneliya Muller
The World Bank Task Team Lead

Mrs. Gladys Masai, CEO of CEMASTEA

I want to extend my deepest appreciation to the teams at the ICT Authority, the Ministry of Education and our partners at the World Bank. Your collaborative execution is turning Kenya’s Digital Masterplan into a reality.
