River road economics at its best...total waste of time and resources building pyramids. In the era of e-commerce these fossils are clinging to 400 year old technology. Kenya railways and Rift valley railways tried and failed so here's another 25 billion down the drain.

That's the problem with the young digital guys, they think the internet is everything,because you can shop from home then we do not need transport infrastructure, the goods just move through the internet.

Improved infrastructure is a priority but attempt to revive the metre gauge railway would be prisonable offence.

Pray how would you transport processed tea yet the tea zones are so far from the railway line?

No it's not in good condition. The Maragua -Sagana section was accident prone even in the good days of KR.

Makueni launches universal health coverage for all residents.

Should this one succeed, Prof. Kibwana will have secured a legacy that will outlive him for many generations.

From the publicly available information, one must register first. A family of 6 i.e. parents and four kids will need Kes. 500/- per year to be fully covered.

I am crossing my fingers hoping it will succeed. We desperately need one county government doing the right thing for others to benchmark.

Was pleasantly surprised to learn all Makueni county project details are accessible on a public portal.

Ngilu's pulses (Ndengu) project is also another one I am rooting for. Someone lambasted her projections as unrealistic here but am still hopeful.

Mwangi wa iria's hass avocado initiative in his first term endeared him to voters across the county. During the Jubilee nominations, he whipped Jamleck even in Kigumo. Jamleck's supposed stronghold.

Agreed 100%. Once voters start seeing tangible benefits of good governance at county level, they will start demanding value from governors.

I don't know much about Vihiga governor, Otichilo, but he was rated very highly by our own @Njunge. I noted he was bold enough to give a state of the county address after 100 days in office. Very brave considering an incoming governor has no spending latitude over a budget that was already approved by the previous government. All those promising stuff that involve spending within 100 days are liars.

Yes. Big plans!

Let mairobians suffer for choosing to elect some barely literate prison-break jail bird. For those who do not know your govana is still wanted at shimo la tewa prison to complete his jail term for petty theft. And now you have put him in charge of nairobi's billions. You put a certified fisi to watch over the sheep. Yaani nairobi, a city with the highest concentration of brains, from professors, PhDs, lawyers, engineers etc couldnt find someone better?
