Interior Cabinet Secretary Prof. Kithure Kindiki speaking during the launch of the Fourth Medium Term Plan (MTP-IV) 2023-2027 in Chuka, Tharaka Nithi County on June 12, 2024.

Interior CS Kithure Kindiki has said the Kenya Kwanza government has not been able to do much for nearly two years that it has been in power because of debt and many other issues it had to fix.

Speaking in Chuka, Tharaka Nithi county, Kindiki said the government is now on course to fulfilling its major campaign promises having stabilised the economy.

He expressed the government's commitment to roll out projects across the country as well as the completion of several stalled projects.

“The first two years we have not been able to do much and that is the honest truth. The government could not do much because we are paying debts and stabilising the economy," he said.

"But now going forward, you are going to see the President, ministers and PSs here. They will not just be coming to visit but to launch, commission and bring the various projects that we are now rolling out from this financial year."

Kindki assured Tharaka Nithi residents that by the time the President hits the ground for the 2027 re-election bid, several projects will be completed.

“I want to give you the commitment of the government of Kenya that we will revive, build and complete all those (stalled) roads and we will build new ones in this administration. This is not a talking government,”  he said.

The Interior CS urged Chuka residents and leaders to support the Finance Bill, 2024 to actualise projects that will transform the lives of Kenyans.

The Interior CS was in Chuka to launch the Fourth Medium Term Plan (MTP-IV) 2023-2027, which is the final 5-Year Plan under the Kenya Vision 2030. 

Kenya Kwanza’s Bottom Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) is aligned with the Kenya Vision 2030 Plan and is aimed at Transforming Kenya's economy, politics and social affairs to turn the country into a newly industrialising middle-income nation by the year 2030.
