support for progress
By Daniel Kituku
Makueni Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jnr is reaching out to the Diaspora population to claim its stake in the economic development of their home County .
Speaking during the 2023/24 Diaspora Budget Public Participation Forum at Abardeer Hall , KICC Nairobi, Mutula petitioned them to build partnerships to help in fundraising for key development projects back home .
The previous day, his deputy Lucy Mulili led a similar meeting in Mombasa and echoed the same message.
Governor Mutula assured the professionals living outside Makueni that his government is committed to partnering with them to work for the people of Makueni.
Those accompanying Mutula were Senator Dan Maanzo, Makueni Speaker Douglas Mbilu, Majority Leader Kyalo Mumo , Former Makueni Senator Sylvia Mueni Kassanga , MCAs, national government officials and top managers of various NGOs.
He asked those with ideas that can spur development to the people of Makueni to share with the relevant departments.
Responding Mutula's call , the Diaspora asked Makueni government to fast track all community projects and ensure they benefit Makueni people and desist from Corruption.
They urged him to deal firmly with wayward staff and weed out all Corrupt officials.
