Kenyan President William Ruto conducted a site visit to the Talanta Sports City in early February built by CRBC.

During the visit, President William Ruto toured the stadium's interior to review the progress of roof installation, seating arrangements, and auxiliary infrastructure. He described the development as "impressive" and "world-class," stating that the completed venue would significantly bolster Kenya's influence within the African and international sporting communities.

The Talanta Sports City features a 60,000-capacity professional football stadium built to FIFA standards. As a centerpiece for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations—to be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania—the stadium is designated to host the tournament's opening and closing ceremonies as well as several high-profile matches.
