Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury John Mbadi has appointed six members to the National Infrastructure Fund Board, marking the start of the board’s three-year term.
According to Gazette Notice No. 10416, issued under the National Infrastructure Fund Act, 2026, the appointments were made in exercise of powers granted under Section 13(1) of the Act.
The appointed members are James Mworia Mwirigi, Fahima Ali Ahmed Zein, Christopher Kibui Maranga, Latoya Ouna, Lawrence Kibet and Mohammed Abdirahman Hassan.
The six members will serve on the National Infrastructure Fund Board for a period of three years, effective July 8, 2026.
The appointments mark another step in the government’s efforts to operationalise the NIF, which is designed to finance major infrastructure projects through sustainable funding sources rather than increased borrowing.
The fund gained prominence earlier this year after the government channelled Ksh103.45 billion in net proceeds from the sale of a 65 per cent stake in the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) into the NIF as its seed capital.
One of the flagship projects expected to benefit from the fund is the planned Ksh154.2 billion phase one modernisation of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), which the government says will significantly expand passenger handling capacity and improve cargo infrastructure.
