Kenya's President Ruto wants to make Nairobi a better city where people can move around easily and live in nice neighborhoods. He talked about this when he learned about the Nairobi County Urban Renewal and Regeneration Programme. He said this plan does more than just fix roads - it helps bring back pride, makes travel easier, and shapes the future of Kenya's capital.
The President promised to work with county officials to refresh the city. They have already started fixing 161km of roads and walkways across Nairobi. The program aims to build affordable homes in old parts of the city because many people need decent places to live. These areas have rundown buildings, bad streets, and sometimes no streets at all.
Other plans, like the Affordable Housing Programme and Nairobi River Regeneration Programme, also help make the capital more modern. On March 6, during his visit to Nairobi County, President Ruto said Kenya will change when leaders make brave and smart choices. He told people in Mathare that the slums would eventually become decent homes and promised residents they would soon have better places to live.
The city has been installing new sidewalks for pedestrians to improve Nairobi's appearance. However, trash problems and street sellers in the middle of town still cause trouble.
