NAIROBI, Aug 8 (NNN-KBC) — Government projects that have stalled will be relaunched and expanded, said Pres William Ruto, stressing that the projects will also be modernised to cater for the growing population.
He noted that the Government was starting afresh so that all its projects are completed within a span of two years.
This, he explained, will check the wastage of resources.
“No new project will be launched before we complete the running ones.”
Speaking on Monday during the commissioning of the Othaya Sewerage Project – Last Mile Connectivity in Othaya, the President argued that the latest move is in tandem with the late President Mwai Kibaki’s rallying call that Kazi Itaendelea.
In Tetu, he commissioned the 2,500-acre Kaiguni Irrigation Project that will increase the value of horticulture products by Ksh500 Million a year and create at least 15,000 jobs.
He was accompanied by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga and MPs led by Majority Leader Kimani Ichungw’ah.
Earlier, the Head of State launched the tarmacking of the 45-Kilometre Ichamara-Rutune in Mukuruwe-ini.
He said that the Government was keen on ensuring that roads are modernised to stimulate commerce. — NNN-KBC
