In Summary
The University of Nairobi is set to construct a Sh2 billion building to host classes for Chinese language and culture.
The complex - which will house lecture halls, offices and a
students’ dormitory - will be financed by China through its Confucius
Institute, an education agency that promotes Chinese language and
culture in overseas countries.
Construction is set to begin in March next year and will take 18 months to complete.
“The vice-chancellor Prof Peter Mbithi has today
signed an implementation agreement on the construction of the
state-of-the-art Confucius Institute Building at the University of
