Glad to see over 73 students displaced by insecurity return to Cheptulel Boys’ School, closer to their homes. This provides a stable learning environment to foster growth. Security remains key to education, as we welcome more students from Marakwet soon.

Today, we approved two key policy frameworks: the Kapenguria Municipality Spatial Plan and IDP, which will guide land use, infrastructure, and environmental conservation. After meeting with stakeholders, the plans now head to the County Assembly for approval.

We are heartbroken by the tragic Moroto-Loroo road accident that took four lives from West Pokot. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families during this difficult time. As we grieve, may we find strength in unity, and may the departed rest in eternal peace.

West Pokot has kicked off the development of a Poverty Graduation Bill—anchoring the #UPG model into county systems. This step marks a step foundation towards poverty reduction. Grateful to Village Enterprise for walking this journey with us.
