Kenyans in the diaspora have trained their eyes on investment opportunities in the country after elections as opposed to sending money for consumption and subsistence to their relatives.

A three-day investment conference scheduled in Nairobi this December through the Kenya Diaspora Alliance seeks to enlighten Kenyans living abroad on smart and secure approaches to saving and growing the value of their savings.

Kenya Diaspora Alliance Chairman Dr Shem Ochuodho yesterday announced that the meeting will be significant in exposing different channels of remitting money back home safely and in affordable ways and also to create awareness of initiatives underway for investment in the continent.

“We seek to engage different economic experts and remittance experts as well as drivers and stakeholders in county, national, regional and continental development to speak about the opportunities available for Diasporas to invest in back home,” said Dr Ochuodho.
