The Kenyan government will fund the expansion of staff at the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) to increase the number of trained health workers. This initiative is crucial for achieving the administration's Universal Health Coverage (UHC) agenda.

• President William Ruto announced funding for the recruitment of additional lecturers at KMTC in the next financial year.
• KMTC currently trains over 41,000 students across 71 campuses, though its staff strength has struggled to meet demand.
• The President also unveiled plans for infrastructure projects at KMTC campuses, including hostels and additional classrooms, and directed that KMTC students be included in the national tertiary education funding system.
