County Government starts rehabilitation of earth dams, starting with Munathi Earth dam in Ikanga/Kyatune Ward in new year


Governor Malombe's administration is continuing with its agenda for water & food security for the county residents.


Over the weekend, Agriculture Chief Officer (CO) Gladys Kivoto was at hand to commission rehabilitation works for Munathi earth dam in Ikanga/Kyatune ward which is a lifeline of thousands of local residents.


Speaking during the event where she was joined by the water director Eng Kennedy Mutati, the sub county water officer Mr Ngiti and a host of area professionals, madam Kivoto emphasized the county government's commitment towards improved water security at household level.


"Governor Malombe's administration is making deliberate efforts to ensure that the county residents have access to water at household level, both for domestic use and also for small scale irrigation farming" stated the CO.



She urged the Ward residents, as well as residents elsewhere across the county to take advantage of water sources within their vicinity to improve their livelihoods through farming. 


"Small scale irrigation farming has a two fold effect; to improve food security at home and also grow locals economies" she said.


Since he took over the reins of leadership, Governor Malombe has rolled out a cocktail of water projects across the vast county, all geared towards improving the lives of Kitui residents.

Governor Malombe Hogs Public Limelight for Best Performance

Image
By Our Reporter   When Kitui county residents went to the polls and elected Governor Julius Malombe, they were looking for a development conscious person who would lift the county from the bottomless pit where it had been thrown by Kaluki Ngilu and her bandits. Overwhelmingly, the county residents voted for Dr Malombe and ignored the other pretenders who were soiling the governor's ballot paper. And today the county residents are being vindicated. Governor Malombe is being cited among the very top governors across the country in terms of performance, just one year down the line. In the very latest opinion poll conducted by Infrotrak, Governor Malombe has posted an above average rating of 63%, a strong signal that the county is in safe hands. And the residents are excited.  "By the Time Infotrak releases another Survey, Kitui will have risen two-fold. We are done with the obstacles of development. For the next one year we shall sail through. It will be Kyuma leading the park .F...

It is Dr Malombe's Land - Evidence Shows

Payment of land rates   No Criminal Encroacher should attempt to Grab Dr Malombe's legally acquired land Our Reporter   Governor Julius Malombe, as a private citizen, has the legal rights to own land anywhere in the Country. The fact that he owns a parcel of land within Kitui Municipality should not be a strange thing to anyone. However, what is concerning is when another individual attempts to criminally encroach on and grab Dr Malombe's piece of land, in the hope that he will keep quiet just because he is the governor. This is the most warped thinking ever, and it is anchored on blackmail.  The plot in question is legally owned by Dr Julius Makau Malombe. It was legally allotted to him over 30 years ago. And as a law abiding citizen, Malombe has been faithfully and legally paying land rates for the said piece of land since that time to date! The fact that he has not developed that piece of land is not a licence for greedy individuals to try to grab it.  Siasa playi...
