The development takes place within South Kanduyi Constituency located in Bungoma County. President William Ruto launched this housing initiative during August 2024. Workers have advanced construction to the ground floor slab casting stage. The team expects to finish the current slab within twelve days. The project provides jobs for one hundred sixty people across different shifts. Eighty workers handle night operations to speed up progress. Four residential blocks will house three hundred seventy-two families when finished. The development creates employment opportunities for local residents. Construction teams maintain steady progress toward completion goals. Three housing categories serve different income groups within the community. Affordable Housing Units total one hundred seventy-eight apartments with studios and larger spaces. Social Housing Units provide seventy-four homes for families. Market Rate Units offer one hundred twenty premium apartments. Each category targets specific buyer groups with varying financial capabilities. More than five hundred thousand Kenyans applied for first-phase homes through April 2025. Studio apartments start at six hundred forty thousand shillings. One-bedroom units cost nine hundred sixty thousand shillings. Two-bedroom homes reach one million two hundred eighty thousand shillings. Legal challenges related to the Housing Levy delayed the original December 2024 move-in date to April 2025. Cabinet Secretary Alice Wahome confirmed that workers have built over one hundred forty thousand housing units nationwide. The ministry aims to complete two hundred thousand units each year. The government plans to deliver one million homes within five years. Citizens can apply through the Boma Yangu digital platform. Officials remain committed to providing decent housing for all Kenyans. [/QUOTE]
