President William Ruto has
launched major infrastructure initiatives in Narok County aimed at unlocking
the region's vast economic potential. Among the flagship developments is the
construction of the 59km Enengetia-Olposimoru road, which is being upgraded to
bitumen standard to connect Eneng'etia, Olokurto, Enkuseru, Olposimoru, and
Kiptenden. President Ruto highlighted that the upgraded road will significantly
ease the movement of agricultural produce to markets, giving a strong boost to
trade in a region known for producing vegetables, maize, wheat, and dairy
goods.
Alongside the road
construction, the President announced a Sh2.8 billion government investment
dedicated to expanding electricity access across Narok County. He also revealed
that the long-awaited Narok Airport will be operational within the next few
months.
These initiatives coincide
with several ongoing infrastructure projects in the county, including the 40km
Suswa-Inkorionito-Naiekia-Enkare road in Narok East, the Ololung'a-Ewaso Ng'iro
road, and the Ololung'a-Sogoo-Saptet-Mulot road, which is now nearly 60 percent
complete. Additionally, tarmacking of the Ngoswani-Naikarra-Morijo road is
actively progressing, with 30km already finished. President Ruto reaffirmed the
government's commitment to transforming the county through strategic
investments to enhance livelihoods and local commerce.
