Yesterday, I joined Interior and National Administration CS and other leaders at a thanksgiving service held at Dini ya Roho Mafuta Pole ya Africa Church in Sakale, West Pokot County, where we also participated in a fundraiser towards the development of church infrastructure.

We commend the church for its vital role in promoting peace, community development, and support for education within the region. Faith-based institutions continue to be key partners in fostering unity, stability, and social transformation.

I also applaud the residents of West Pokot for embracing peace and supporting ongoing security initiatives, including the surrender of illegal fi****ms. Sustaining peace and security remains essential for development and prosperity in the county.

At the same time, we note with concern the continued cases of illegal and unregulated mining activities that pose serious safety and security risks. We call for adherence to safety standards and reaffirm our commitment to working closely with relevant stakehol

Happy Labour day and Happy new Month.
