Tanzania and Kenya have agreed in principle to start trading in natural gas, with officials hopeful that the deal will help end the persistent trade spats between the two countries.
The gas deal formed part of the discussions between Tanzanian President John Magufuli and Kenya’s Uhuru Kenyatta during his recent two-day visit to the country.
