President William Ruto on Monday called for increased connectivity between African countries to hasten the continent’s digital transformation. President Ruto, who was speaking as he opened ICT-sector premier forum Connected Africa Summit 2024 in Nairobi, said the event inaugurates Africa’s digital transformation.
The health sector is one of the key pillars under the government’s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA). In the sector, President William Ruto seeks to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC), where all citizens have access to quality health services when and where they need them without suffering financial hardship.
The National Fertiliser Subsidy Programme (NFSP) is meant to ensure farmers have access to high-quality inputs, bolster Kenya’s food security and boost farmers’ incomes, with agriculture being pivotal to the national economy and integral to President William Ruto’s Bottom-up Economic Transformation Agenda.
The government is pushing to grow the digital economy to enable citizens to embrace the opportunities that it presents for the benefit of the country.
In a world where access to justice is often perceived as a privilege rather than a fundamental right, the move to decentralise Judiciary services closer to the people is laudable.
Since 2022, the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Digital Economy led by Cabinet Secretary Eliud Owalo, has launched free public Wi-Fi spots across the country.
Kenya has taken a key step in developing a policy that identifies, assesses and certifies the knowledge, skills and competencies of individuals acquired outside the traditional educational settings.
The government offers hundreds of services that the public needs, from issuance of ID cards to birth certificates and police abstracts. Not long ago,
accessing some of these services was not only time consuming, but also frustrating.
