A section of senior government officials from the Mount Kenya region has urged Kenyans to rally behind the government’s development agenda, emphasizing that unity and trust between citizens and leaders are key to national progress.
Speaking on Saturday in Gatundu North during the Jamii Imara Mashinani forum, the leaders called on citizens to focus on ongoing government projects and ignore what they described as misleading narratives from the opposition.
The Jamii Imara Mashinani initiative brings together principal secretaries, CEOs, and directors from various state departments. It aims to take government services and information directly to the grassroots, while also enhancing transparency, accountability, and public participation.
Government Spokesperson Isaac Mwaura reaffirmed that the Kenya Kwanza administration remains committed to improving livelihoods through targeted social and economic programs. He urged Kenyans to focus on the tangible progress being made rather than political propaganda.
“Some people are trying to create unnecessary confusion and distrust,” Mwaura said. “Our message is simple — don’t be misled by those spreading falsehoods. Look at the ongoing projects, the jobs being created, and the transformation happening across the country. This government is about delivery, not noise.”
Lands Cabinet Secretary Alice Wahome echoed the sentiments, noting that the Mount Kenya region continues to benefit from various government projects. She also reaffirmed her ministry’s commitment to eradicating corruption through digitization.
“We are working tirelessly to digitize land services across the country,” Wahome said. “This is not just about embracing technology; it’s about eliminating corruption that has long plagued the sector. Kenyans must support these efforts and ignore distractions meant to derail progress.”
The leaders emphasized that sustained development and stability can only be achieved when citizens actively participate in government programs and reject divisive politics.
