With all systems up and running, we are now enjoying streamlined operations that ensure effective and timely service delivery especially in critical areas like water provision, irrigation and agriculture, health and infrastructure. I commend our people, social media and the mainstream media for their continued support and more importantly for exercising their constitutional obligation to participate in project priority setting and seizing the opportunity to constructively engage government through public participation. As we tighten the monitoring and evaluation of projects to ensure adherence of standards and deliver value for money, your participation as the people who we remain central. Three years down the line in the devolved system of governance, it is a pleasure to note that the residents of our great county continue to enjoy the fruits of the multi-sector development strategy that we put in place towards accelerated and sustainable economic growth as outlined in our County Integrated Development Plan. The overall objective of my administration is to provide infrastructure and support services to enable our people to take advantage of existing opportunities to earn a decent living and create wealth. I thank all our development partners who have helped us in one way or another to realize our aspirations as a county.
