President Ruto Launches Housing, Forest, and Highway Projects - October 2025

President William Ruto officially handed over keys for 220 affordable housing units to new homeowners at the Boma Yangu Elburgon Estate in Nakuru County. The President also led the launch of a government project to restore 33,000 degraded hectares in the Mau Forest, which is part of a broader plan to plant 15 billion trees. This initiative aims to integrate community livelihoods with conservation. Additionally, President Ruto announced the expansion of the Nairobi–Nakuru–Mau Summit Highway to extend to Kisumu, Kericho, Uasin Gishu (Eldoret), and Busia (Malaba). The highway project will use a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model to improve connectivity and trade.
