Boost for State as court unlocks Sh600bn privatisation plans
The decision marks a significant boost for the government’s privatisation agenda, where it aims to generate up to Sh600 billion from the sale of public entities to support the budget and infrastructure development.
The High Court has dismissed multiple petitions challenging the Privatisation Act 2025, and the proposed sale of stakes in 11 State-owned firms, handing a major boost to the government’s Sh600 billion cash-raising plan for infrastructure development and budget support.
The court ruled that the petitioners failed to prove any Constitutional violations and upheld the law in its entirety, clearing the way for the planned privatisation programme to proceed.
