Nandi Governor Stephen Sang has commended contribution of National Government towards various development projects in Nandi saying it will improve livelihood in the county.

Sang said the proposed state of the art stadium to be built in Kapsabet town at a cost of close to sh. 1.8 billion is one of the projects funded and implemented by the National Government.

The Governor said the stadium which is at tendering stage will bring a complete turnaround of economic transformation within Kapsabet town and its environ. 

“Part of our development agenda will be delivered by National Government for example we have a tendering process that is ongoing to put up a huge stadium here at Showground at a cost of between Sh1.5-Sh1.8 billion,” Sang said during the commissioning of 2023-2027 County Integrated Development Plan at Eliud Kipchoge Stadium in Kapsabet town.

The Governor added that there were many roads being done by the National Government in Nandi County including proposed multimillion municipal market.

“We have roads being done by Nandi County Government and others by National Government making them huge investments that must be captured in CIDP,” he said.

The Governor insisted that the commissioned CIDP will not only capture the development done by County Government but also development done by National Government.

He praised the team from the National Government at county level and National Treasury for their critical role towards the making of Nandi CIDP.

“My agenda as the team leader will be to ensure that all the development partners from national, religious organization, and NGO have their agenda successfully achieved in Nandi,” Sang went on.

 Nandi County Commissioner Caroline Nzwili Mueni hailed the seamless relationship between National Government and Nandi County Government.

Nzwili assured Governor Sang that National Government officers working in Nandi will avail needed support to ensure commissioned CIDP and others areas of cooperation achieve targeted agenda.

“We will work together to ensure developments fronted by both County and National Government is achieved,” Commissioner Nzwili assured.

Nzwili singled out Agriculture and Health as areas of cooperation between National and County Governments.

“Though Agriculture and Health is devolved, there is a lot of partnership between National and County Governments,” she said.

The County Commissioner lauded the new county Ward Development model which will be implemented from the next financial year as the true economic transformation model that will completely change lives in Nandi villages.

The commissioning of 2023-2027 CIDP was combined with county end of the year prayers ceremony and was also attended by the entire County workers including all the County Assembly Members and National Government Heads of Departments.
