H.E. President @WilliamsRuto's re-election bid is anchored in the transformative development agenda his administration has pursued across the country, with a strong emphasis on inclusivity, equity and ensuring that every region benefits from national development.
Nairobi is undergoing a major infrastructure overhaul, with investments in roads, rail, sports facilities and public amenities designed to work as an interconnected urban transport and development network.
The Nairobi–Kibera–Talanta Commuter Rail Link is a key part of this transformation, connecting the City centre to Talanta Sports City and strengthening access to major sporting and commercial destinations.
Implemented by Kenya Railways, the project involves upgrading 13.3 kilometres of the existing Nairobi–Limuru metre-gauge railway and constructing a spur line to Talanta Commuter Rail Station.
The connection will link Nairobi Central Station to the Raila Odinga International Stadium and Nyayo National Stadium, providing convenient rail access between two of Kenya's major AFCON 2027 venues, with intermediate stops serving Laini Saba and Kibera.
Works include replacing ageing steel sleepers with 21,600 concrete sleepers, laying new rails and ballast, improving drainage and constructing pedestrian overpasses and underpasses at key crossing points in Kibera.
Eight-coach diesel multiple-unit trains are expected to carry up to 1,500 passengers per trip, with frequent services, particularly during major sporting events.
The railway will also provide an alternative transport option for daily commuters travelling between Nairobi CBD, Kibera, Satellite, Kikuyu and Limuru, easing pressure on roads and improving urban mobility.
The State Department for Internal Security and National Administration will support the project's operational readiness through interagency coordination, working with relevant security, transport and local administration agencies to facilitate safe railway operations, secure passenger movement and effective crowd management, particularly during major sporting events.
The Suna-Marindi Modern Market in Migori County exemplifies the success of the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), with critical infrastructure already reshaping local economies and expanding opportunities for small-scale traders.
The market is partially complete, with the ground floor operational and serving hundreds of entrepreneurs.
The new facility provides organised trading stalls, modern ablution blocks, paved access roads and spacious parking areas, improving sanitation, safety and the movement of goods and customers.
The State Department for Internal Security and National Administration will continue working with local stakeholders to strengthen security around the market, safeguarding traders, their merchandise and customers while creating a safe environment for business to thrive.
The Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) places rural communities at the centre of our national development by investing in infrastructure that unlocks untapped resources and connects local enterprise to wider markets.
In Homa Bay Town Constituency, the upgrading of the Ruga–Lala (D1335) Road to bitumen standards by the Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA) advances this agenda by improving connectivity between the B2 Homa Bay–Mbita Road and the B144 Rodi Kopany–Sori Road.
The improved road will provide an alternative route around busy town centres, reduce travel time and vehicle maintenance costs while making it easier for farmers and traders to transport produce to Homa Bay, Rodi Kopany and Mbita. It will also enhance access to the Kabunde Airstrip, promoting travel.
Better access is expected to stimulate business along the corridor, expand market opportunities and enhance the value of surrounding land.
The State Department for Internal Security and National Administration recognises reliable road infrastructure as essential to effective security and public service delivery. Improved access enables security officers and government administrators to reach communities more efficiently, while safer, better-connected roads support the movement of people and goods.

In the past 4 years, the GoK has made significant progress in reviving the sugar industry in Western Kenya. Mumias, Muhoroni, Chemelil, Nzoia and Sony Sugar are now operational after many years of neglect and being run down . Kenya's sugar production has increased by 56.7% in the first nine months of 2026, easing local supply pressure and reducing retail prices by KSh32 per 2kg. New investments and sugarcane-growing areas have further emerged in Bura and Nandi.
There is now more local production, more jobs, fewer imports and greater self-reliance.
Join us tomorrow on @ntvkenya - Fixing the Nation as we discuss the country's security situation and ongoing measures to strengthen national security ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Ahead of the official commissioning of the Raila Odinga International Stadium on 5 January 2027, we undertook an assessment and inspection visit to evaluate the facility's readiness for the historic occasion.
The commissioning will be marked by an international fixture between Bayern Munich and Ajax.
The stadium is also expected to play a central role in AFCON 2027, hosting both the opening and final matches.
"Achung' e pith ka'ang'iyo nam, ka'be de'aneni mwalo yo Sindo… Sindo mwalo!"
(I stand on a mound, looking towards the lake; if only I could see you down at Sindo…)
That is the song we grew up with, evoking a Sindo that seemed little more than an extension of the clear waters of Lake Victoria. Not anymore.
Sindo's story is changing. What was once imagined in song as a distant shoreline is becoming a place of opportunity, enterprise and renewed confidence.
Government investment is giving this lakeside town a new identity through modern trading infrastructure, upgraded town roads and other Blue Economy interventions that are turning its location into an economic advantage.
Commissioned by H.E. President @WilliamsRuto in September 2026, the Sindo Economic Stimulus Programme (ESP) Market is a central part of this transformation.
Now complete and operational, the two-storey facility provides a clean, organised and secure trading environment for more than 400 traders.
Complemented by the upgrading of Sindo's town roads, these investments improve access to trading spaces, facilitate the movement of goods and create a more welcoming environment for business.
Together, they strengthen the connection between the lake's resources and the commercial opportunities available to fisherfolk, traders and the wider community.
Supporting this transformation, the State Department for Internal Security and National Administration works through local administrative structures to facilitate coordination, community engagement and the orderly use of public facilities. These efforts help protect public investments and create a secure environment in which traders and residents can benefit from the town's growing economic activity.
The online joke comparing parts of Suba South to war-torn Yemen, inspired by images of dusty, rugged roads, need not define the region's future.
With deliberate investment in infrastructure, the same lakefront can become a gateway to scenic island tourism, thriving waterfront commerce and modern settlements.
The upgrading of the 17-kilometre Tonga–Kisaku–Osiri Road to bitumen standards by the Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA) is a step towards that transformation, bringing Suba South closer to the connectivity and economic progress Kenya aspires to achieve.
The road will connect local communities to the Sori–Magunga–Sindo highway and link into the planned Lake Victoria Ring Road network along the Sindo–Nyandiwa section.
This improved connectivity will strengthen access to fish-landing beaches, trading centres and wider markets, helping fishermen and farmers move fresh produce faster, reduce transport costs and expand commercial opportunities.
For an area with significant blue-economy and tourism potential, reliable roads can help turn natural resources into sustainable livelihoods.
A dependable road infrastructure is also essential to public safety and effective security operations. Through its work with local administrative structures and relevant agencies, the State Department for Internal Security supports safer communities and improved access along transport corridors.
We'll say it again.
