Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has assured residents of the Coast region that the government is committed to ensuring equitable development across the country without discrimination.
Kindiki gave the assurance while continuing his development tour of the Coast region, where he is launching, inspecting and commissioning various projects in Kilifi and Kwale counties.
Speaking in Ruruma, Rabai Constituency, Kilifi County, the Deputy President said government programmes targeting young people were transforming the country and would continue creating opportunities for future generations.
He made the remarks after breaking ground for the construction of the Rabai Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Hub, which is part of the government’s plan to establish digital work centres across the country.
Kindiki said the ICT hubs were providing young people with access to online employment opportunities, describing digital work as an important part of the future global labour market.
He is expected to continue his development tour in Kinango Constituency, Kwale County, where he will oversee other government projects.
The Deputy President was accompanied by Rabai MP Kenga Mupe, Ganze MP Kazungu Tungule and Taveta MP John Bwire, among other leaders.
The lawmakers pledged their support for President William Ruto’s re-election bid in 2027 and endorsed Kindiki as a potential successor when Ruto completes his tenure.
