The tour involved assessing the Nyambari Economic Stimulus Programme Market and a regional road network.

Kindiki also announced the official commencement of the bitumen laying process on a 15-kilometer road.

Why it matters
The projects are aimed at uplifting livelihoods through government investment and market establishment. The market includes specialized amenities like cold and dry storage to mitigate agricultural post-harvest losses and features an ICT hub to drive digital commerce. Construction on these facilities has already created over 100 jobs for local workers.
