President Uhuru Kenyatta kicked off his tour of several neighbourhoods in Nairobi and Kiambu Counties, as part of his countrywide tours, focused on development.
State House announced that the president's tour would begin at midday at Ruaka, before proceeding to Wangige, Kikuyu and finally, at Dagoretti, Wednesday April 5.
Ruaka, Wangige and Kikuyu are in Kiambu County while Dagoretti is part of Nairobi County.
Uhuru would meet with leaders and speak with residents, on the government’s development agenda such as the implementation of 'massive' infrastructural upgrades since the Jubilee administration came into office.
''The improvement of roads, expansion of access to electricity, the modernisation of health services and lighting up of towns to boost business in almost all parts of the country are part of the initiatives that president Kenyatta has spearheaded since he came into off,'' said PSCU, April 4.
The tour comes few weeks after Uhuru cancelled his tour of Meru, Tharaka Nithi counties and the larger Western Kenya region.
