Kenyans have been urged by President William Ruto to participate in and mobilize the public in favor of government initiatives.
Speaking to the congregation at the African Independent Pentecostal Church of Africa (AIPCA) church in Kasarani, Ruto expressed his opinion that if Kenyans were unified, the country would be great.
In an effort to increase public support for the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF), Ruto invited Kenyans to take part in forums for public engagement so that laws supporting state initiatives could be put into effect.
“Contribute through public participation so that we can know how we will move Kenya forward together,” he said.
Ruto also promised to hire extra teachers to make sure that Kenya gives priority to education.
“Last year we hired 56,000 teachers, this year we will employ 20,000 teachers,” expressed Ruto.
In addition, the Head of State called on Kenyans to work with the government to boost food production and lower food imports.
Youth leaders were urged by the president to back government initiatives like the creation of digital jobs, labor exports, and the Affordable Housing Program.
