Health PS Muthoni embarks on nationwide caravan to amplify govt agenda

Nairobi, Kenya - Health Secretary Mary Muthoni has launched a nationwide Jamii Imara Mashinani caravan to promote the government's agenda directly with communities, highlighting President William Ruto's achievements in Rongai. The initiative aims to bring government programs and information to the grassroots, encouraging Kenyans and stakeholders from various sectors to collaborate in the country's development.

Speaking at the inaugural forum in Rongai, Muthoni emphasized that the government has made significant progress during its first three years in office and that the caravan would help disseminate its work locally. She called for a collaborative effort involving government bodies, religious leaders, non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and citizens to build stronger communities and a prosperous nation.

Muthoni referenced the biblical book of Jeremiah, urging Kenyans to actively participate in enhancing their surroundings, stating that the nation's success ultimately benefits its people. The PS urged residents, particularly those at the "bottom of the pyramid," to engage with government officials to address challenges in their communities.

She stressed the importance of communication and coordination across government departments, emphasizing that officials should familiarize themselves with programs implemented across ministries to answer citizens' queries comprehensively, regardless of the sector involved. Muthoni emphasized that the initiative would enable government officials to connect citizens with relevant services, fostering a more coordinated approach to addressing public concerns.
