His Highness the Aga Khan, Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga sign city park facelift deal

A major project to give Nairobi City Park a face-lift has been formalised.

The Aga Khan and Prime Minister Raila Odinga witnessed the signing of an agreement to rehabilitate the park on Thursday.

Speaking during the ceremony at the National Museum in Nairobi, the Aga Khan announced that the Aga Khan Trust was committed to investing in the rehabilitation of cultural facilities that improve the lives of the poor.

He noted that the trust was undertaking ten similar projects worldwide, with the Nairobi City Park being the second in East Africa after a similar one in Zanzibar.

The Aga Khan projected that once rehabilitated, the park would attract millions of visitors from across the world every year.
