Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 27785, member: 2262"] The President of Kenya, William Ruto, started a big project on Monday called the Nairobi River Regeneration and Engineering Works Programme. This project will cost 50 billion Kenyan shillings. It will create 40,000 new jobs, which is more than the 22,000 people who already work for the Climate WorX Mtaani Initiative. The project will also build a 60-kilometer sewer line and 50,000 affordable houses in the areas that they fix up. The Nairobi Rivers Commission and the ministries of Housing, Environment, and Defence will collaborate on this project. President Ruto said the government will ensure that Nairobi stays clean and safe for the people who live there and visit. He called the project a "life-changing initiative" that will give thousands of people a better place to live, better transportation, and more money. President Ruto said that Kenya will not change if people do not make the right choices. He promised Kenyans that they would see a difference in the Nairobi River in the next 24 months at a ceremony for new social housing and other buildings along the Nairobi River in Kamukunji. The Nairobi Rivers Regeneration Project will build affordable housing, modern markets, and better roads and buildings, making Nairobi a better place to live and work. The project will also clean up the rivers, stop floods, manage waste, and build sewer lines in Kiambu, Machakos, Kajiado, and Murang'a. This will make people healthier and cities stronger. President Ruto asked Kenyans to support his call for national unity, saying it was important for the country to do well. He decided to work with former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and other leaders to make the country more united and successful. The President also visited some other places in Kamukunji. He liked that the National and Nairobi County Governments were working well together on projects. He thanked the county for building a new field at Desert Grounds in California. He said the field would give people a place to have fun, develop their talents, and talk to each other, which would help the country's economy and society in the long run. At Zawadi Comprehensive Primary School, President Ruto said the government will keep expanding school feeding programs across Kenya, especially in poor areas. He said the feeding program will get more kids to go to school and help them do better in their classes. President Ruto also checked on the construction of the Shauri Moyo B Affordable Housing Project in Makadara. The project will build 4,566 new homes. He said that Nairobi is the capital of Kenya and the only United Nations headquarters in the developing world. He said it is important to make Nairobi better and more modern. The Affordable Housing Programme will help get rid of many slums in Nairobi and give millions of people better places to live. Deputy President Kithure Kindiki said the Nairobi Regeneration Project will ensure the city's three rivers are clean. It will also improve the city's sewer system to protect people from getting sick or having their homes flooded. He asked all Kenyans to come together to help the country grow. Many important people were there, including Cabinet Secretaries Alice Wahome, Aden Duale, and Soipan Tuya, and Governors Johnson Sakaja, Joseph ole Lenku, and Ahmed Abdullahi. The Chairperson of the Nairobi Rivers Commission, Margaret Wanjiru, and members of parliament from Nairobi were also there. [/QUOTE]
