The state is finally pretending to care about tenders for the little guys. William Ruto claims his administration plans to educate 600,000 locals to grab reserved government contracts. He posted on X that marginalized groups like women and persons with disabilities get priority access. This scheme supposedly unlocks 30 percent of public deals.
The president insists this fits a larger plan to fight joblessness and poverty. He grouped it with affordable housing and digital labor efforts during his pitch. The leader argued that building markets and hostels helps crush economic struggles alongside these new procurement promises.
He also pledged to support 90,000 youths with hands-on learning experiences. They get paired with master craftsmen for skills transfer while pocketing a KSh6,000 monthly allowance. The taxpayer covers certification costs and pays the mentors during this six-month trial.
Ruto dropped these details while handing out business cash in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County. The administration hopes this mix of cash and coaching builds a capable workforce. They believe reducing informal labor reliance creates better pathways for everyone involved in the economy.
