Tata Chemicals closure leaves Magadi residents divided

The closure of Tata Chemicals in Magadi, Kajiado County, has left residents at a crossroads. While some are calling on the government to resolve its differences with the company and allow operations to resume, others want Tata Chemicals to leave altogether. Residents also argue that despite operating in the area for decades, the company should have done more to improve the lives of communities living around its vast soda ash mining operations.
