“We commend you for what you are doing on your fiscal measures. The country is certainly headed in the right direction,” she said.

President Ruto said the government is committed to managing the country’s debt to sustainable levels.

The President said the government has cut down on new projects and stopped subsidy programs that were draining the country’s resources.

He said the government has deliberately invested in agriculture and MSESs to create opportunities, income and wealth for as many Kenyans as possible in line with the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda.
