The volume of transshipment cargo through the Mombasa port looks set to fall for the second year in a row in an early setback to President William Ruto's administration’s plan to position the facility as a world-class trade facilitator.

Provisional data show goods destined for other ports that were handled at Mombasa fell at a faster rate of 19.87 percent in the first seven months of the year compared to the year before.
