By PETER NJENGA More by this AuthorIn a familiarisation tour of Naivasha by the WRC Safari Rally secretariat staff last Friday it emerged that one of the biggest beneficiary of the Safari will be the KWS Training Institute. The institute will be the nerve centre of the iconic Safari Rally for the next three years. The equipment will be shipped directly to Mombasa with paperwork done abroad and from the port hauled to Suswa railway station by two express SGR trains, and thereafter loaded into 64 prime movers to KWS Training Institute. The legend goes that Toyota was committing in excess of Sh600 million in their Safari excursion according to the book “Safari Rally Kenya”, by renowned photographer Reinhardt Klein commemorating the event’s 50th anniversary. Apart from the KWS Training Institute upgrade, sleepy Nakuru County management seems to be unaware that the world of motorsport and television crew will descend into town in just under 12 months.
