President William Ruto. [PCS] President William Ruto will begin a three-day development tour of Kisii and Nyamira counties on Monday, August 12. The tour marks his first visit to the region in eight months coming days after he tours Mt Kenya region. Among the projects to be launched is a Sh3.4 billion ultra-cancer centre near Kisii School, aimed at improving healthcare services in the area. Nyaribari Chache MP Zaheer Jhanda praised the President's commitment to the region, noting the recent Cabinet appointment of Julius Migos to the Education docket. "I urge all leaders from the region to rally behind the Head of State and the residents to desist being mobilised against supporting his agendas," said Jhanda on Sunday during a meeting with over 10,000 women in his constituency. While the State House has not yet issued the President's formal itinerary, leaders from the region have shared a schedule covering multiple constituencies. On Monday afternoon, President Ruto is expected to visit Nyamira County, where he will be hosted by North Mugirango MP Joash Nyamoko. He will launch the Kiabonyoru Secondary School, funded by the Kuwait government and announce the establishment of Nyamira University. Later, Ruto will fly to Nyaribari Chache to commission a last-mile power project at Nyang'eni village in Birongo ward. Tuesday's schedule includes the launch of the Kisii Cancer Centre near Kisii School. At the same time, the President will head to Kitutu Masaba in Nyamira to inaugurate another Kuwait-funded project at Nyasumi Primary School. In the afternoon, he will be in Kitutu Chache North to launch the Sombogo Tea Factory and the Marani-Sombogo-Kegogi-Ragogo-Bumbuuria-Kayole-Bobaracho-Mbanda-Gesieka-Nyakoe roads, along with commissioning last-mile power projects in the area. The day will end with the commissioning of the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC) last-mile power connectivity in Bonyanchara near Nyongore in Kenyoro SDA Riana ward in Bonchari. On Wednesday, the final day of the tour, President Ruto will visit the Bomachoge Chache Constituency to launch an affordable housing project in Ogembo town.
