The undertaking of multimillion projects by both the national and county government in Kitui county are a demonstration of fruits of collaboration between the two levels of government in serving the people. Sports CS Salim Mvurya termed the mutual partnership as a true testimony of progress of devolution. "This is the time for Kitui. It is the time to demonstrate benefits of the partnership between the county and the national government".
The CS was addressing the media during a tour to inspect Ithookwe Stadium which is near completion. The international stadium will host this year's Mashujaa Day celebrations. He was accompanied by his Principal Secretary Elijah Mwangi.
Ithookwe Stadium is a 10,000 seater facility that is currently 80 per cent complete. The fully complete stadium is expected to be through by October 6.
CS Mvurya said there was remaining work on the pavilion and auxiliary areas which will be done soon. He added that the perimeter wall was also part of areas to undergo finishing up.
Kitui Governor Dr Julius Malombe thanked President Dr William Ruto for the state-of-the-art Ithookwe Stadium building. Other projects being done by President Ruto's government are the rehabilitation of Ithookwe Airstrip and building Tiva Utalii College campus as well as the Kanyonyoo Livestock Training Institute.
Dr Malombe cautioned unnamed Kitui politicians out to take credit of development programs done saying they don't know how the projects were conceptualized.
