The initiative will start in Nairobi County then progressively spread to other counties across the country to provide employment opportunities in line with the Kenya Kwanza administration’s Bottom-up Economic Transformation (BETA).
Several dignitaries are attending the launch including Principal Secretaries Dr. Eng. Festus Ng’eno (Environment and Climate Change), Gitonga Mugambi (Forestry), Dr. Raymond Omollo (Internal Security and National Administration), Teresia Mbaika (Devolution), Charles Hinga (Housing and Urban Development) as well as UN Resident Coordinator in Kenya Dr. Stephen Jackson.
