Regular engagement with elected leaders provides crucial feedback on status, pace and impact of development projects in their areas of representation.
The engagement is also important for the identification of future priority projects.

Met the Governor, Senator and Members of the National Assembly from Nandi County to review progress of electricity, water, road, education, health, markets and other Government projects ongoing across the county.

Agreed on modalities for fast tracking the projects, and encouraged the leaders to continue pulling together to ensure good quality works from contractors and effective communication of Government programmes and projects to the people.

Today, the Government has disbursed 3 billion shillings being a second tranche, to 122,000 NYOTA project beneficiaries drawn from all the 47 Counties of Kenya.

The entry into force of the Sovereign Wealth Act is one of the most consequential economic steps ever.

The law creates a ring fenced fund drawn from the proceeds of mineral and oil sales to cushion the country from internal and external economic shocks like the recent Iran crisis.

A portion of the fund will be invested in commercially viable strategic infrastructure projects to earn returns while 30 per cent of the proceeds will be saved for future generations.

Today, Kenya has joined the ranks of Norway, UAE, Kuwait and Botswana, ensuring use of the proceeds from our natural resources benefits both the current and future generations.

With 14 million members of cooperatives, out of which 8 million are SACCO members who have over 1 trillion shillings in savings, Kenya has one of the most successful cooperative sectors worldwide.

The establishment of the National Infrastructure Fund (NIF) will go a long way in advancing the long delayed objective of having adequate water for irrigation and domestic use.

It is expected to use the NIF to build 50 mega dams and 200 mid sized dams, some of which have been in the plans for more than 30 years but could not be constructed due to funding constraints.

Cumulatively, the NIF is set to help us put 2.5 million acres of additional land under irrigation, improving agricultural productivity and permanently solving our perennial food security challenges.

Received update on the Government's agenda for the water sector from the Cabinet Secretary, Principal Secretaries and heads of water agencies.

Urged them to promote teamwork, to expedite the pace of delivery and to work with all stakeholders including County Governments to ensure seamless service delivery.

Parliament has approved the establishment of the National Cybersecurity Agency (NCSA), a major milestone in strengthening our digital security architecture under the leadership of H.E President William Samoei Ruto.

The autonomous body will coordinate national cybersecurity efforts, safeguard critical information infrastructure and respond to emerging threats such as ransomware attacks, data breaches and misinformation campaigns.

Operating under the State Corporations Act and guided by a multi-sectoral board drawn from security, finance, justice and intelligence institutions, the agency will oversee national cybersecurity strategy, manage the National Cybersecurity Operations Centre, audit critical systems and establish a Centre of Excellence to build advanced digital security skills.

The NCSA will also enhance collaboration between government, industry, academia and international partners, ensuring our growing digital economy remains secure, robust and trusted.
