President Uhuru Kenyatta on Friday launched the construction of Shs1.8 billion Naivasha to Njabini road. The upgrading of the 32-kilometer earth road to bitumen standard is expected to be complete by August 2022.
Addressing thousands of jubilant residents who turned out to witness the launch, the president said the new road will enhance the smooth movement of farm produce to the markets. He reiterated that projects being implemented by his government are aimed at improving the lives of Kenyans and that the commissioning of a potato factory in O’lkalaou is a major boost to the farmers in the area.
On matters dairy, the head of state said his government through the ministry of agriculture is doing everything possible to ensure good prices for their milk. Nyandarua Governor Francis Kimemia who led local political leaders in welcoming the president assured the head of state of his support and that of the residents of the county as he spear heads efforts to unite and develop the country.
