Turkish investors have set their sights on the Kenyan education sector following the success story of a chain of schools in Nairobi and Mombasa.
The four schools, operating under the Light Academy brand, were set up by Turkish businessmen to cater for Kenya’s fast-growing middle class.
The businessmen now plan to establish one more school in Kisumu and a private university.
More than 200 Turkish investors have in the past month visited Nairobi and Mombasa to explore business opportunities.
