President William Ruto has reiterated his commitment to collaborating with leaders from various political backgrounds to enhance service delivery across Kenya.
During a meeting with political leaders from Nyamira County at State House, President Ruto emphasized the importance of engaging with grassroots leaders, regardless of their political affiliations, to ensure efficient delivery of services to Kenyans.
The president, accompanied by Governor Amos Nyaribo and Members of Parliament Clive Gisairo, Steve Mogaka, and Patrick Osero, discussed development projects in Nyamira County during the meeting.
MP Clive Gisairo emphasized that the meeting provided an opportunity to address shared concerns affecting the people of Nyamira, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing development initiatives over political differences.
“The collective approach to issues directly affecting those we represent in leadership should be the guiding principles of our quest for equity in the allocation of resources and social-economic development,” Gisairo posted on his X account.
The ODM MP said they discussed with the president the speed at which Amabuko-Gekano-Birongo-Manga- Motemomwamu and Kemera-Kiendege-Keumbu road contracts are being executed.
“I am delighted to report that the president assured us his unwavering commitment to having the said roads completed as soon as possible to serve Wananchi, with the priority being the oldest road; Ngenyi-Manga- Motemomwamu,” Gisairo said.
“It is our collective decision to engage fellow leaders as we seek common solutions to the problems affecting our people.”
The discussion surrounding the future development of Nyamira County has been ongoing, with leaders from the region meeting with President Ruto to address key priorities and projects.
Last year in August, President Ruto convened a meeting with elected leaders from Nyamira and Kisii counties, shortly after his tour of Gusiiland.
This gathering was perceived as a strategic move by the president to strengthen his influence in the region, which is considered a stronghold of opposition leader Raila Odinga.
During the meeting, the leaders presented President Ruto with a memorandum of understanding outlining key priority areas for government implementation.
They also provided status reports on ongoing projects in constituencies and wards, particularly focusing on initiatives such as electricity connectivity.
