Migori Governor Ochillo Ayacko has challenged his political opponents to prioritise development for the people who elected them instead of early campaigns.
The governor who presided over the launch of two dispensaries in Awendo Sub-County stressed the need for leaders to join hands and support development and service delivery.
He urged all leaders in the county to collaborate in advancing the development agenda in healthcare, infrastructure, and education.
"Toning down political rhetoric will allow for more productive governance, ensuring that the needs of the people are met effectively ahead of the next 2027 general elections," Governor Ayacko said.
He called for political tolerance and stressed the need for responsible exercise of power among leaders, urging them to adhere to their respective roles.
Governor Ayacko emphasized the importance of unity and collaboration for the sake of development in the region.
He outlined that the ongoing launch of dispensaries marks a significant milestone in his administration's healthcare agenda.
"The dispensaries are part of a broader primary health initiative," he said.
Ayacko said expanding the healthcare infrastructure in the rural areas of Migori will address pressing health challenges and improve the overall well-being of Migori residents.
He said the move aligns with his commitment to improving healthcare delivery as a key pillar of his administration.
Ayacko reaffirmed his unwavering commitment to developing Migori County, stressing that his sole focus is on service delivery.
The governor who launched more than 10 healthcare facilities across the county within two weeks in the first phase highlighted that the dispensaries would ensure residents receive quality healthcare services they deserve without having to travel for long distances.
According to the governor, the dispensaries which were formerly in bad state had undergone total renovation, have enough healthcare workers stationed at the facilities and equipped with adequate drugs.
Delays in operationalizing the dispensaries saw residents searching for healthcare services in far flung areas.
This had been occasioned by most dispensaries being in bad state.
Governor Ayacko said his administration inherited several health facilities that were mismanaged.
