Deputy President William Ruto has said that the national government will continue collaborating with the county leadership for the betterment of the nation.
In a series of tweets Friday, the Deputy Head of State added that the national leadership will among others, promote the development of small financial ventures established by individuals and groups.
The two levels of government, he added, will also collaborate on empowering the youth with skills that will help them be self-reliance through the expansion of the technical training sector.
Farmers will also not be left behind as the government seeks to aid them by securing both the local and foreign market for their produce under the Jubilee government’s Big-4 agenda.
‘’The Big Four focuses on selected drivers of high-impact growth to ensure sustainable development. We will continue to support counties by promoting the development of SMEs, expanding technical training, securing local and export markets for our farmers. #NIICO2018,’’ he said.
Additionally, he said, the government is committed to retaining present and attracting more investors by securing them and their investments, a move that will further benefit Kenyans.
The plan, according to Ruto, is to make Kenya stand out as a preferred investment destination among her peers and competitors.
‘’Provision of security, electricity, transport and communications infrastructure has been expanded and dedicated to areas of industrial production and high investor presence. These interventions have positioned Kenya as a compelling investment destination. #NIICO2018,’’ he added.
