Marine operations at Lamu Port have received a major boost after the delivery of a new Sh1.4 billion tugboat, as Kenya races to upgrade its second commercial port into an international facility.
The Kenya Ports Authority (KPA), which acquired the port's first tugboat, to be known as Mv Pate, said it will boost efficiency at the port and is part of KPA's Sh2.7 billion investment plan to equip Lamu.
