President Uhuru Kenyatta will visit Homa Bay in early December.
He is expected to present a Sh10 million cheque to Homa Bay Women's Sacco and
inspect Huduma Mashinani projects.
The President is
also expected to present a water
hyacinth harvesting machine, a patrol boat to beef security on Lake Victoria and life jackets to fishermen.
On Thursday, a team
headed by former Nairobi woman representative Rachel Shebesh held a
meeting
with the Homa Bay security team led by
County Commissioner

Shebesh briefed Homa Bay
deputy governor

visit, Uhuru will meet fishermen who have complained of persistent harassment by Ugandan security forces.
He will also inspect Homa Bay Pier market and fish cooling plant, which was constructed by Homa Bay woman representative Gladys Wanga using the National Government Affirmative Action Fund.
