President William Ruto commenced a four-day development tour of Ukambani on Saturday, focusing on projects in Machakos, Makueni, and Kitui counties. The tour's inaugural event took place in Mbiuni, Machakos County, where Ruto inaugurated Phase Two of the Mwala Cluster Last Mile Water Supply Project, which will provide water to over 120,000 residents.
During the commissioning ceremony, Ruto addressed the persistent water shortages in Ukambani, vowing to address the issue by constructing new dams in the region. He dismissed allegations of political bias, stating that no region would be overlooked in Kenya's development efforts, emphasizing that Machakos is an integral part of the nation. The President assured that all parts of the country, including Ukambani, will receive their fair share of development.
Ruto's tour will continue across the three counties, with plans to launch roads, break ground for student hostels, issue title deeds, inspect bridges, lay foundations for educational institutions, and inaugurate an affordable housing project. On the second half of the tour, he will visit Mwingi North, Kitui West, and Kibwezi East to oversee additional road and school projects.
The final day will see him breaking ground for a clinker cement factory in Ngaie and concluding the tour with the launch of two major road projects and electricity connectivity initiatives.
