Governor Malombe commissions Kiimani borehole project  Our Reporter   Governor Julius Malombe has commissioned a new solar-powered borehole water project at Kiimani in Mutha Ward, giving residents a major boost in his efforts to to make Kitui County water secure. The project is expected to significantly reduce the distance residents travel in search of water while ensuring a more reliable supply for households and key public institutions in the area.

Governor Malombe alias Kyuma   Our Senior Writer   For many in Kitui, the question is no longer whether Governor Julius Malombe has left a mark. It is what happens when he eventually leaves office. Across the 40 wards, a quiet conversation is growing: his shoes, residents say, are too big to fill. When Governor Malombe returned to office, he inherited a county that had lost its development rhythm under Kaluki Ngilu — stalled projects, strained services, delayed salaries and outright mismanagement.  That picture has since changed and it is visible far beyond the county headquarters. Transformative development... Water sector has been the most transformative. Solar-powered boreholes, sand dams, sump wells and pipeline extensions have taken water closer to communities that walked for kilometres.  In our County, a water point is not just infrastructure. It is a mother saving half her day, a child staying in school, livestock surviving the dry season, and a farmer moving ...

Our Reporter   Friday, September 4th, retired Kaluki Ngilu visited Kitui County Referral Hospital and violently discharged 15 mothers and 4 other patients. She claimed she was out to pay patient bills. She did not pay a single penny!  Instead she used goons to spirit her and the patients away. She has no intention of paying.  But which Ngilu is this who pretends to have compassion? Ngilu was here for 5 odd years, and everything she touched turned into an instant scandal.  During her misadventure, Kitui County Hospitals were literal deathbeds. Patients agonized painfully even as she cobbled up a looting venture called KChic where people's money was pocketed before she took off. Ngilu sold oxygen cylinders  During COVID-19, patients died likes flies as Ngilu and her thugs sneaked away donated oxygen cylinders and sold them off to private hospitals in Nairobi. She again looted the COVID-19 funds meant to alleviate patients suffering. (EACC has investigated this the...

Waziri Phoebe Mutemi addressing the media  Our Reporter   The much-anticipated Kitui Governor’s Cup finals have been rescheduled from August to December 4–6, 2026, following delays in the availability of funds to facilitate the tournament. The change has been necessitated by the fact that the Kitui County FY 2026/2027 budget is yet to be cleared by the Controller of Budget (CoB).  The county budget was submitted to the County Assembly on time, but the approval process took longer than anticipated, consequently affecting the release and availability of funds for the County Government activities. " With finances currently unavailable to cater for the event, the county has found it necessary to push the finals forward to allow sufficient time for the required funds to be procured once the budget process is completed," said Phoebe Mutemi the County Executive Committee Member (CECM) for Sports, Culture and the Arts. The new dates are also expected to provide an opportunity fo...
