What is happening to our children in Maai Mahiu is heartbreaking and unacceptable. We stand united as #G7WomenGovernors in demanding urgent action to rescue, protect, and restore the lives of these children, and to hold every perpetrator accountable.
No child should be for sale. No child should be invisible. #EndChildExploitation

Kirinyaga County was pleased to host Bomet officials for a benchmarking exercise. They toured Kerugoya Level 5 Hospital, which has improved healthcare access, the upcoming Kimbimbi Level 4 Hospital, and the Wang’uru and Sagana-Ruguru Water Projects. Their visit affirms the impact of our investments, showing the power of collaboration in strengthening service delivery.

I was privileged to join H.E. President @WilliamsRuto’s delegation to Luanda, Angola’s capital, and meet President João Lourenço. It was inspiring to witness the strengthening of Kenya-Angola relations.
Key milestones include the resumption of Kenya Airways flights to Luanda and the visa waiver for Kenyans. There were also discussions on Rt. Hon. @RailaOdinga’s African Union candidacy for chairman.
