The construction of more than 2,000 affordable housing units in Bungoma has officially begun.

President William Ruto unveiled the project during his February visit to the region, describing it as a game-changer for the area. The housing units, to be constructed in Musikoma Ward, Kanduyi Constituency, Bungoma County, were launched six months ago by the head of state.
