@Wavinya_Ndeti Wavinya Ndeti today launched the 2025/2026 county bursary programme, reaffirming her commitment to supporting needy students and ensuring no child is left behind due to school fees challenges.
I urge the national government, through the Ministry of Interior and National Coordination, to act swiftly and decisively to resolve the clashes between the two communities in Mwingi, Kitui County, which have tragically led to the loss of seven lives. Let us embrace peace, coexistence, and unity among all communities.
Pale Machakos County kuna siasa mingi chafu ya Governor but ukweli ni kwamba Mama hana competitor. The only competitor she had joined UDA and that’s how her TUTAM became a reality. Ukweli ama uwongo?
Education is the foundation upon which we build a brighter and more inclusive future for our children.
Today, I will launch the Machakos County Bursary Programme at Kithunguini Secondary School in Lower Kaewa Ward, Kathiani Subcounty, starting at 9:00 a.m. This initiative aims to support needy students across Machakos County, ensuring that no child is left behind due to financial constraints.
Civil servants are the backbone of public service, ensuring that government policies are effectively implemented and services reach every citizen.
Officially closed the second cohort one-week training for staff held in Mombasa. This cohort comprised 400 staff, following the successful completion of the first cohort of 400. We are committed to ensuring that these trainings continue until every employee in the county government of Machokos is reached.
The programme has gone a long way in strengthening their capacity, sharpening professionalism, and equipping them with practical skills necessary for efficient service delivery.
This progress sets the stage for a more responsive and accountable workforce, grounded in integrity and better prepared to deliver quality services to the people. I urge all staff to remain focused, disciplined, and committed to excellence in their work.
Agriculture is the backbone of our economy, it sustains livelihoods, ensures food security, and promotes development.
That is why, as an administration, we are empowering our farmers through continuous skills training and the provision of modern machinery to enhance productivity and efficiency. Through partnerships with groups such as Yatta Farmers Multipurpose Cooperative Society, we are not only strengthening cooperative movements but also equipping farmers with value addition machines to improve quality, reduce post-harvest losses, and ensure that no produce goes to waste.
Our goal is to see our farmers increase their yields, earn better incomes, and play a central role in achieving our vision of sustainable food security and inclusive economic growth.
Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) remain the backbone of our local economy, driving innovation, creating jobs, and uplifting livelihoods across Machakos County.
Hosted the Machakos County Jua Kali traders, an association we have consistently supported since I took over as governor. Through targeted empowerment and sponsorships to various trade expos within the East African Community, our traders have continued to excel, emerging among the best and showcasing the strength of local talent and enterprise.
These efforts have expanded market opportunities, increased incomes for our traders, enhanced skills and product quality, and positioned Machakos as a hub of innovation and trade in the region.
As an administration, we will continue to provide a conducive working environment for all traders, ensuring our Chakula Mezani, Pesa Mfukoni vision becomes a reality for every household.
Honored to host the principals of the United Alternative Government, led by my party leader H.E. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka, ahead of their two-day tour of the Ukambani region.
Karibuni sana, Macuzo!
President William Ruto: Kenya is a middle-income country, our neighbours are least development countries. There is a big difference. If you want to compare Kenya fairly with others, compare Kenya with other middle-income countries. That is where you will get the figures right. Middle-income countries like Kenya have possible higher prices than Kenya or the same.
