The stadium, nearing completion, is expected to host key matches during the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. Musonye emphasizes Kenyans should be proud of this world-class facility, urging them not to be misled by TV broadcasts.
Talanta Stadium is part of Kenya's efforts to upgrade its sports infrastructure, alongside renovations at Kasarani and Nyayo stadiums. The government aims to showcase Kenya's capabilities and hospitality through these developments.
