Kenyan Government Announces Housing Program, Digital Recruitment, and Economic Funds - October 2025

President William Ruto announced plans to establish an Infrastructure Fund and a Sovereign Wealth Fund to secure Kenya's long-term economic stability and promote prudent investment of public resources. In a separate initiative, the government's Affordable Housing Programme will provide 580 new housing units to Gichugu Technical and Vocational College (TVC) in Kirinyaga County, addressing student accommodation challenges. Additionally, a new digitized recruitment system implemented under President Ruto's administration has enabled a qualified teacher, Steven Nzomo, to secure a job with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) after a nine-year wait. Nzomo had been qualified since 2013 and benefited from the new system.
