Dr. Makali Mulu Highlights Development Milestones as He Intensifies Kitui Central Transformation Drive

-

Kitui Central Member of Parliament and 2027   incoming Governor hopeful Dr. Makali Mulu has outlined a series of development milestones achieved in the last quarter of the year, pointing to steady progress in socio-economic empowerment, education, infrastructure, and public service delivery across the constituency.

In a statement reflecting on the period, Dr. Mulu said his office had prioritized inclusive development aimed at improving livelihoods and strengthening access to essential services for residents of Kitui Central.
Under economic empowerment initiatives, a total of Ksh 4.2 million was disbursed to 46 women and youth groups through the Uwezo Fund, supporting entrepreneurship and small-scale business growth.

 In the education sector, 9,062 secondary school students benefited from bursaries issued through the Kitui Central NG-CDF, easing the financial burden on families and promoting school retention.
Infrastructure development also featured prominently, with the Last Mile Electrification Project advancing in several villages in partnership with the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC).

 The completion and inspection of the Ikoo Drift has significantly improved accessibility, particularly during the rainy season when transport has traditionally been disrupted.

Learning environments were enhanced through the rehabilitation of four classrooms at Mikuyuni Primary School, the construction of a new classroom at Kavuvuu Primary School to address congestion, and the renovation of a dining hall and kitchen at Kitui School for the Deaf. Additionally, eight sanitation facilities were constructed at Mikuyuni Secondary School and King’oini Primary School, improving hygiene and health standards for learners.

Public service delivery and security were strengthened through the construction of Assistant Chief’s offices in Kakuuni and Kalundu, as well as the renovation of the Mulundi Police Post to enhance security services in the area.

Dr. Mulu noted that similar projects are ongoing across Kitui Central Constituency, reaffirming his commitment to equitable development and efficient service delivery. He emphasized that the gains made reflect a broader vision of empowering communities and laying a strong foundation for sustainable growth throughout the constituency.

Homes were torched, livestock stolen, and innocent lives lost. The pattern was tragically familiar—a cycle of bloodshed fueled by old wounds and deep-seated divisions. Despite the presence of multiple security installations, including the Anti-Stock Theft Unit (ASTU), GSU camps, and military posts, help arrived too late. The attackers vanished into the rugged terrain, leaving destruction in their wake. In the days that followed, anger simmered as locals questioned why their government had failed them once again. Among the voices calling for justice was  Chairperson Turkana professionals Association SG Ernest Nadome  said they  are tired of burying their loved ones "We have security forces, yet we are left to defend ourselves. What is their purpose if not to protect us?" He said  ...

By irene Mwende  NAIROBI, KENYA – Ann Kioko, the Campaign Director for CitizenGO Africa, has delivered a powerful petition on behalf of 12,620 concerned Kenyan citizens, urging President William Ruto to immediately clarify and retract Kenya’s recent vote at the United Nations in favor of extending the controversial mandate on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI). In a strongly worded statement, Kioko expressed deep urgency and grave concern over Kenya’s July 5, 2025 vote endorsing the renewal of the so-called UN Independent Expert on SOGI. According to Kioko, this decision was made without any public consultation or national debate and starkly contradicts the spirit of Kenya’s Constitution, which recognizes the family as the natural and fundamental unit of society. “The SOGI mandate is far from a neutral human rights mechanism,” Kioko said. “It has evolved into a politicized tool used to pressure sovereign nations to accept ideologies that threaten ...
